53rd Bonspiel

Congratulations Curlers

The 53rd Annual BC Nisei Mixed Bonspiel was held in Richmond, BC, on October 7 – 9, 2022. After a two-year hiatus, this in-person event was a long-awaited success. Thirty teams participated and everyone had a great time. A big thank you to the entire Vancouver Bonspiel Committee.
