The Robyn Silvernagle rink is in action this week looking to bring a Scotties provincial women’s curling title back to North Battleford.

The Twin Rivers Curling Club rink featuring Silvernagle, third Stefanie Lawton, second Jessie Hunkin and lead Kara Thevenot are in Humboldt for the Viterra Scotties Womens Provincial Championship.

Silvernagle has made it to the Scotties final game the last two years in a row. She goes back to this year’s Scotties with a revamped roster, with both Lawton and Hunkin new to her team this year.

The team is coming off a playoff finish at the Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling Meridian Canadian Open in North Battleford, and scored wins this season in events in Red Deer, Humboldt and Nutana Curling Club in Saskatoon.

The round robin has Team Silvernagle facing Jessica Mitchell and Sherry Anderson on Tuesday, Penny Barker and Sherry Just on Wednesday, Amber Holland and Ashley Howard on Thursday and Chantelle Eberle and Kristen Streifel on Friday.

That will be followed by the page playoffs on Jan. 26 with the women’s finals going Jan. 27.

The winner will represent Saskatchewan at the national Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Sydney Nova Scotia beginning Feb. 16.
