The 2022 Scotties Tournament of Hearts is underway.
Although Canada's national women's curling championship will take place from Fort William Gardens, there will be no fans in attendance. However, there might be a chance for fans to attend during the events on Feb. 4-6. The Ontario government announced Thursday that sports arenas are allowed to increase their capacity to 500.
Eighteen teams, split into two pools of nine and seeded based on their final standing, will have the opportunity to compete in Canada's women's national curling championship for a chance to represent the country. The winning team will move on to represent Canada in the 2022 OK Tire & BKT Tires World Women’s Curling Championship in Prince George, B.C., from March 19-27.

2022 Scotties Tournament of Hearts standings
Eighteen teams, split into two pools of nine and seeded based on their final standing, will compete in eight round-robin games. The top four teams (with their records transferring over) will then advance to the Championship Pool, where they will play four games — one against the top four teams from the other pool.
The top three teams in each pool (instead of the top four) advance to an expanded playoff field. There will be a tiebreaker if necessary to determine the third team that will advance to the playoffs. The second-and third-ranked teams in each pool crossover to play in Page playoff qualifier games.
