The event attracted teams from Boston, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus and as far away as Ontario, Canada.
The first game begins at 12:30 p.m. Friday and games go through Sunday, event organizers said.
Admission to watch the games is free.
The curling event is the first of its kind to be held at the Springfield ice rink and the out-of-town participants should have an economic impact on the city and county during their stay.
Our reporters will be at the event today talking to participants and city leaders about the importance of this curling tournament.
