Creston teams play at the Combined Championship in Kamloops.

Two teams ages 60+ and ages 70+ from Creston went to the Provincial playoff for the Combined Championship in Kamloops March 20-24.

The four-zone winners from the Pacific Coast Master Curling Association (PCMCA) and four-zone winners from the British Columbia Interior Curling Association (BCIMCA) have a round robin of seven games to determine the winner. Both teams encountered stiff competition with lots of close games.
