1985 Canadian Junior Men's Curling Championship


The 1985 Pepsi Canadian Junior Men's Curling Championship was held February 17-24 in St. John's, Newfoundland. Team Alberta, skipped by 2010 Olympic champion skip Kevin Martin won the event, defeating Prince Edward Island in the finals. It was the first major championship win for Martin, one of the most decorated curlers in history. His win earned Martin a spot as the alternate for Canada at the 1985 World Junior Curling Championships, and his team a spot representing Canada at the 1986 World Junior Curling Championships, where they would win a silver medal.
Martin was a petroleum technologies student at the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology at the time.
