St. Paul Cash Spiel

The St. Paul Cash Spiel is an annual bonspiel, or curling tournament, that takes place at the St. Paul Curling Club in St. Paul, Minnesota. It is part of the World Curling Tour. The bonspiel takes place during the 6th/7th week of the Tour. In the past, the event has been held using a triple knockout format, but a round-robin tournament format has been used since the 2010 spiel. The men's tournament was started in 1994 and has been held every year since 1998 as part of the World Curling Tour. The women's tournament is due to begin in 2011. The bonspiel will also be part of the upcoming Great Lakes Curling Tour.[1]
