The United States Mixed Curling Championship is the annual national

The United States Curling Association (USCA) has held the Mixed Championship annually since 1975.[1] Starting in 2015 the winner has gone on to represent the United States at the World Mixed Curling Championship.[2]
The 2019 Mixed Curling Championship was held March 23 to 30 at the Denver Curling Club in Golden, Colorado. Ten teams qualified for the 2019 Championship through regional play-downs.[3]
On July 17, 2020 the USCA announced that the 2020 edition of the Mixed Championship would be cancelled due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[4]
