The qualification event for the 2013 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials, known and advertised as the Capital One Road to the Roar, will be held from November 5 to 10 at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium Complex in Kitchener, Ontario.[1] The Kitchener Memorial Auditorium Complex, colloquially known as "The Aud," has previously been host to major curling events, most recently the 2003 Scott Tournament of Hearts. The top two finishers of the men's and women's events will qualify to participate in the 2013 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials.
The teams will play in a triple-knockout tournament, and four teams will qualify for the playoff round. The first two qualifiers and second two qualifiers will play against each other, and the winner of the first game will advance to the Trials. The loser of the first game then plays the winner of the second game to determine the second team to advance to the Trials.
