In stick curling there are two curlers per team, who deliver their rocks with delivery sticks, with each team member delivering from opposite ends. Sweeping is allowed only from the hog line to the back of the house at the playing end. Two curlers, one from each team, alternately deliver 6 stones each per end, while their teammate skips that end. The roles are then reversed, and the partners deliver the stones back. All games are six ends.

Next year's Maritime Stick championship will be in New Brunswick.

This year's event was run under the auspices of Stick Curl PEI, who would like to thank sponsors Ferguson Funeral Homes, Bob's Stick, and Harold Brister, for their support to this event.
