October 18 Update:
Our qualifiers are now complete, which has finalized our 2024 field. This year we teamed up with the Shorty Jenkins and Rideau Trillium events to replace our OVCA Junior SuperSpiel Qualifier. We also continued our partnership with the Stu Sells U20 and U18 Championships which are also Trillium events.
As a result of our working with the Trillium events there were possibilities for some teams/players to qualify more than once and in fact this happened which required the Committee to make some decisions on how to fill out our field - we thank everyone for your patience in this process. The partnership with the Trillium events made the qualification process more streamlined for teams (not having to add a separate qualifier event to their schedule); however, having this year's experience behind us we continue to work to refine the criteria should teams qualify multiple times in the future.
The draws are now complete and posted on our 2024 Draw page - with 3 PDFs - Men's, Women's and Championship/Consolation.
We are finalizing our team list as well and ask that teams check to make sure that we have your team listed correctly.
More information is to follow as we get closer to the start of the 2024 SuperSpiel.
We look forward to seeing everyone soon and thank all teams for their solid support of our event, now in it's 31st year.

Planning is well underway and we are looking forward to welcoming teams back to Ottawa in the fall of 2024 at the 31st Annual BrokerLink-OVCA Junior SuperSpiel being held from Nov 1 to 3, 2024 with the Finals at the Granite CC at their new location that we enjoyed the banquet at in 2023.
The field is filling up well and we’re confident that this year’s event will be a high point in the junior curling season.
The BrokerLink-OVCA Junior SuperSpiel is pleased to partner with the Rideau Trillium Championship U20 and U18 and the Shorty Jenkins Jr U20 and U18 events to be Qualifying events for our 2024 BrokerLink-OVCA Junior SuperSpiel. For 2024, these events will be replacing the OVCA Junior SuperSpiel Qualifier that has been used up to 2023.
The Trillium points results for the events will be combined (ie, Rideau U18 and Shorty U18 results combined, and Rideau U20 and Shorty U20 results combined) resulting in the following teams earning invitations to compete at the 2024 BrokerLink-OVCA Junior SuperSpiel:
a) Overall U20 winner
b) Top OVCA Eligible U20 team not the Overall U20 winner
c) Overall U18 winner
d) Top OVCA Eligible U18 team not the Overall U18 winner
As such, four teams will receive invitations to compete in the 2024 BrokerLink-OVCA Junior SuperSpiel as a result of play in the Rideau Trillium Championship and the Shorty Jenkins Jr bonspiels.
We are pleased to join with two high performance Trillium events in the OVCA area to provide access to the BrokerLink-OVCA Junior SuperSpiel without requiring teams to reserve a separate weekend for a separate OVCA Junior SuperSpiel Qualifier in 2024.
