Team Saskatchewan, who was skipped by Joyce McKee won the event by finishing the round robin with a 8-1 record. This was Saskatchewan's second championship and second for Joyce McKee's rink with her first coming in 1961. ^[2]

This was the second time that the championship came down to a "winner take all" final draw (the first was in 1965) as both Ontario and Saskatchewan entered their matchup in with identical 7–1 records in round robin play. Ontario jumped out to a 4–1 lead after four ends, but Saskatchewan rallied with singles in four straight ends to take a 5–4 lead after eight ends. A single by Ontario in the ninth tied things up at 5 heading into the final end. Saskatchewan, with hammer in the final end scored one to clinch the championship by a 6–5 score.

The Quebec rink became the second team ever to finish round robin play winless joining the 1964 Newfoundland rink.

The tournament set a then record for most extra end games in one tournament with eight. This shattered the mark set the previous year of five.
