Sudbury Curler Sara Guy Moves Across the Country
Changes to import rules in curling have significantly reshaped the Canadian competitive scene in recent years. Many teams now manage distances between teammates that were nearly impossible a decade ago.
Despite this, a conversation with 27-year-old Marymount Academy graduate Sara Guy at the Northern Credit Union Community Centre on Wednesday evening revealed a remarkable story. Just two days prior, Sara returned from a work assignment in Yellowknife.
Sara Guy’s Far North Work Travels
Sara's work takes her regularly to remote locations in the Northwest Territories, including Cambridge Bay, Nunavut. For those unfamiliar, Cambridge Bay is a small hamlet of fewer than 2,000 residents located on Victoria Island. It is notable for housing the Canadian High Arctic Research Station and serving as a key stop for vessels navigating the Arctic Ocean's Northwest Passage.
"Consider for a moment that her regular work-related jaunts in the Far North not only feature various outposts in the Northwest Territories, but also visits to Cambridge Bay, Nunavut."
From the Arctic to Sudbury
The distance from these northern settlements to Sudbury illustrates the considerable travel challenges faced by Sara and other curlers balancing professional commitments across vast regions of Canada.
"Yes, it’s a long, long way from there to Sudbury."
This blend of professional dedication and geographic extremes showcases the evolving nature of competitive curling in 2025.
