This is a family sport, we emphasize our youth programs and elder programs as much as possible. We truly want everyone to feel welcomed and appreciated when they step on the horseshoe court. We have 54 self-governing charters that comprise our membership. Separately, Horseshoe Canada has their own governing body. Our main event is our World Championships, however we have recently added Regional events to our availability, which are a much smaller scale to hopefully bring in the big event to your destination sooner. Our main event impacts $3-$6 million dollars of direct revenue into your economy. While bringing upwards of over 1000 athletes to compete in the 2 week event, pending entries. 500-750 hotel nights on peak at some locations. We love our sport and look in every way to make each athlete feel welcomed and that the experience they have in your city is top notch!
