Notes

  1. Team Selena Sturmay initially received a pre-qualifying berth to provincials via Alberta Curling Tour (ACT) points. However, on January 3, Curling Canada announced that Team Sturmay would replace Team Chelsea Carey of Manitoba as one of the pre-qualified teams for the 2025 Scotties after Team Carey forfeited their 2025 Scotties pre-qualification berth due to no longer meeting minimum player requirements. [6] Since Team Sturmay no longer needed to qualify via provincials, Curling Alberta added another qualification berth to the Last Chance Qualifier to replace Sturmay's spot. [7]
  2. The Grande Prairie qualifier was not held due to only three teams registering, two of which were already pre-qualified based on either WCT or ACT points and thus did not have to compete in provincial qualifiers. The remaining team, Team Janais DeJong received the berth.
