Canada and USA planning to attend 2008 Norwegian Open

The 2nd Annual Norwegian Open will be held at the Halden Curling Centre from the 27-29 October, 2008. The venue is 120 km south of Oslo, close to the Swedish border.

Canada will return to defend the title they won in an 8 team field last year, where they fielded the same team that went on to represent Canada at the 2008 Worlds.

Team USA, coming off their podium finish at the Worlds, is also planning to compete in this year's 10 team field.
