Eight teams representing their athletic districts, had already qualified to take part in the two-day final event. Day one of the competition got underway in Orangeville on Wednesday, February 25, with both boys and girls teams competing. The girl's competition feature eight starting teams in two pools that played a round-robin style preliminary. The Centre Dufferin District High School Royals team, skip Kaelyn Gregory, lead Emily Knox, 2nd Emma Holmes, and vice Natalie Brett, won their first game 6–4 over Assumption C.C. They lost 11–3 to Saugeen District High School in game two, but rallied in game three to win 6–4 over St. Bendict's. The final competition in Shelburne on Thursday, saw the Royals face Centre Wellington District High School in the semi-final. The two teams battled to a tie and had to go into an extra end to determine the winner. CDDHS came out on top with the extra point to win 6-5. “It's really stressful because we knew that team is a really good team. They went undefeated yesterday,” said Royals skip Kaelyn Gregory. “We knew they were the team to beat.” The game came down to one nail-biting end that would mean a sudden death finish. “In the seventh end, we took three points so we were up two points,” Kaelyn explained. “In the last end they took two points so we were tied. I was really stressed out, but it was fine. We had last rock advantage, so I'm sure I wasn't as stressed as the other skip was.” The final game for the championship pitted the Centre Dufferin team against Walkerton District Comunity School. The Walkerton team took the win, 9–2, and will now got on to the provincial level to compete at OFSSA on March 9–12, in Brighton, Ontario.
