Team Manitoba, who was skipped by Connie Laliberte won the event as they defeated two-time defending champion Nova Scotia in the final 5–4. Manitoba advanced to the final after beating British Columbia in the semifinal 5–4. This was Manitoba's third championship overall and the first of three championships skipped by Laliberte. The Laliberte rink would go onto represent Canada in the 1984 World Women's Curling Championship held in Perth, Scotland, which they also won.

The record for most stolen ends by a team in one game of five set in 1982 was matched twice during the event. Nova Scotia was the first to do this in Draw 7 as they stole the first five ends of their game against Prince Edward Island in an 8–1 victory. Nova Scotia would fall victim to the same feat two draws later when Saskatchewan stole the second through sixth ends en route to an 8–2 victory.[2]

Elizabeth MacDonald Award

edit

The Scotties Tournament of Hearts Sportsmanship Award is presented to the curler who best embodies the spirit of curling at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts. The winner was selected in a vote by all players at the tournament.

Prior to 1998, the award was named after a notable individual in the curling community where the tournament was held that year. For this edition, the award was named after Elizabeth MacDonald, who was an influential builder for women's curling in Prince Edward Island as she founded the first women's competition at the Charlottetown Curling Club in 1950 and responsible for the formation of the PEI Ladies Curling Association in 1959. She also competed in three Canadian women's curling championships in 1961, 1962, and 1967.[6]
