Canada improves to 3-0 at the 2025 World Wheelchair Mixed Doubles Curling Championship

STEVENSTON, Scotland (Curling Canada) Wednesday was a perfect day for Team Canada with a 10-5 win over Team Czech Republic before besting Team Estonia 14-3 at the 2025 World Wheelchair Mixed Doubles Curling Championship in Stevenston, Scotland.

Ina Forrest (Spallumcheen, B.C.) and Mark Ideson (London, Ont.) were on the top of their game in both matches on Wednesday, scoring five against the Czechs and four against Estonia in each power play alone.

“We had lots of practice at that power play,” said Ideson after the game against Team Czech Republic. “We’re trying to get the lead early on, but we’re fairly comfortable coming from behind.”

The Canadians found themselves in an early deficit against the Czech Republic but made effective use of their power play in the third end to turn the game around. Canada kept control of the following three ends to solidify its win.

It’s fair to say that hitting was the highlight of the Canadian game on Wednesday, as it resulted in some high numbers on the scoreboard throughout the day.
