It’ll be the third meeting between the two Manitoba squads this week. Team Manitoba beat Einarson in the 1-vs-2 Page Playoff game on Saturday night to qualify for the final. But the Wild Card’s knocked off Jones’ Manitoba squad earlier in the week in the round portion of the tournament.

A five-time Scotties champ Jones is making her ninth career appearance in the Scotties championship game, last winning in 2015. They also have three second place finishes.

The final is scheduled for 6:00 p.m. central time at the South Okanagan Events Centre.
