Are you willing to wager a bet? Would you put money down for B.C. to Defeat Saskatchewan? With the passing of bill C-218 by the Federal Government, betting on single-event curling matches is now possible and you can get in on all the action.

Curling Canada has signed a deal with PointsBet Canada to become the official sports betting partner of the organization.

Katherine Henderson, chief executive officer for Curling Canada put out a statement welcoming PointsBet to the sport and touching upon the many benefits they offer.  

“PointsBet’s track record speaks for itself, as the company has existing partnerships with a variety of highly regarded partners around the world, and we couldn’t be happier to enter into this new venture with an industry leader.”

Henderson also touched on the opportunities available with PointsBet not only with Canada Curling but with other sports organizations, foreign and domestic.

PointsBet founded its operations in Australia where betting has a mature market. PointsBet has reached its hands into well known sporting leagues such as the NHL, MLB, NFL, MBA, WMBA, and the PGA Tour. Scott Vanderwel, the CEO of PointsBet Canada said he believes it’s important to bring a new experience to one of Canada’s favourite pastime sports.

Another company that is jumping on the new betting regulations in curling is CoolBets. CoolBets has offered sport wagering on major curling events for years. CoolBets have operated internationally, offering betting to those in Canada in the grey area of legality. 

However they have solidified themselves as a reliable and straightforward betting site providing an original approach to sports wagering. CoolBets have taken an unconventional approach to attracting customers with the use of Twitter, attracting a whole new demographic with witty and funny commentary on events and their services.
