The 1987 Labatt National Curling Trials were held April 19-25, 1987 at the Max Bell Arena in Calgary, Alberta. They were held to determine the Canadian National men's and women's Teams for the demonstration curling event at the 1988 Winter Olympics.
The teams were selected by a committee based on recent success and performance at a training camp. Some teams were formed just for the Trials themselves. Members of the committee were Canadian Curling Association present Harvey Mazinke, Garry DeBlonde, Vera Pezer, Art Quinney, Ron Anton, Dot MacRea and Warren Hansen. There were some teams that were thought to be snubbed by the committee, such as Paul Gowsell, Mark Noseworthy and Al Hackner, the latter of whom had boycotted the tryouts because curlers tried out as individuals rather than teams.[1]
