Congratulations to Saskatchewan’s Team Holland for becoming the 2011 Scotties Tournament of Hearts champions!
After a strong week and finishing first in the standings, team Saskatchewan lost in the 1-2 playoff game to Jennifer Jones’ team Canada. Team Saskatchewan then had to earn their place in the championship game by beating the young upstart team from Ontario. With a nail biting steal in the 10th end, Amber Holland’s team ensured their place next year in the tournament as Team Canada by beating Jennifer Jones’ team. That means that next year there will be two Saskatchewan teams at the Scotties.
Amber also added MVP of the tournament to her resume.
Good luck in Esbjerg, Denmark at the World Championships starting March 18, 2011.
