2023 World Mixed Curling Championship pool standings

There are 34 total teams playing in the competition. They will be split up into four groups — two groups of eight and two groups of nine. 

Each team plays every other squad in their respective group, totaling seven matches in the round robin portion of the competition. The top three teams from each group moves on to the knockout stage. 

The four winners from each group automatically earn a spot in the quarterfinals, while the second and third-place teams will play in qualification games to determine who else makes up the rest of the quarterfinals field. 

After the field has been cut down to eight teams, it is single elimination the rest of the way, with quarterfinals followed by the semifinals, and then the championship.
