The World Senior Curling Championships is an annual curling tournament featuring curlers from around the world who are at least 50 years old. Senior curling is quite similar to curling, with the exception of having only 8 ends played instead of 10.
The tournament began in 2002 with only 7 men's teams and 4 women's teams but has since expanded.
