Chilliwack’s Everly Royea leads her rink into the Boston Pizza B.C. Junior Curling Championship, which start Monday and continue through Saturday at the Langley Curling Club.

Royea skips a foursome that includes Chilliwack’s Madeline Britz, curling lead. Vancouver’s Ardis Mellor-Laing is curling third and Surrey’s Tanis Short is curling second.

Another Chilliwackian, Cailin Cooke, is in the mix with a rink skipped by Cierra Fischer.

Cooke will curl third for Fischer, a Kamloops native who holds membership in the Chilliwack Curling Club.

Another teenager on that team, Dezaray Hawes, also holds a CCC membership though she now lives in New Westminster.

The field for this event is eight teams strong.
