>> WCF World Ranking

The WCF World Rankings track and list the success of all 45 Member Associations of the World Curling Federation at various major events, including the Pacific Championships, the Le Gruyère European Curling Championships, the Ford and Capital One World Championships and the Olympic Winter Games competition.

Points are assigned for top-level placements at each competition, with lower point values assigned for events dating back as far as six curling seasons.

The WCF World Rankings were developed by 1998 Olympic Champion Patrick Hürlimann of Switzerland, who heads the Marketing and Communications Committee of the Federation.

"The WCF World Rankings are a key step in the continued growth of curling as a global sport," says Hürlimann. "New Member Associations will be added as grass roots interest is exploding on every continent, and the World Curling Rankings reflect the desire of every one of them to become the best in the World.”
