European Curling Championships

European Curling Championships

The European Curling Championships are annual curling tournaments held in Europe between various European nations and hosted by the European Curling Federation. [http://www.ecf-web.org/ecc_winners.html "European Championships"] – European Curling Federation (Retrieved on March 17, 2008)] The European Curling Championships are usually held in early to mid December. The tournament also acts as a qualifier for the World Championships, where the top eight nations qualify.

In November 1974, a six-nations tournament was held in Zürich, Switzerland which included Switzerland, Sweden, Germany, France, Italy, and Norway. In March 1975, it was decided that the championships would be competed in December. At the semi-annual general meeting in Gävle, Sweden in April 2004, a new competition called the European Mixed Curling Championships was formed.
