The 2006 Players' Championships Grand Slam of curling tournament, was held April 13–16 at the Stampede Corral in Calgary, Alberta. Following the merger of the World Curling Tour and the Women's World Curling Tour, it became the first Players' Championship to feature a women's event. It was the last event of the 2005-06 curling season. The men's event, sponsored by the Calgary Herald, featured a purse of $150,000, with the winning team receiving $50,000, while the women's event, called the BDO Classic Women's Players' Championship had a purse of $100,000 with the top team receiving $30,000. The men's final was an all-Edmonton affair, with Randy Ferbey and his foursome defeating the rival Kevin Martin rink 8–5. It was Ferbey's first Players' title. The team had not played many Grand Slam events prior to the season, due to the prior conflict between the Tour and the Brier, which saw many of the top teams in the country boycott Canada's national men's championship. Ferbey, who was not part of the boycott had won four Briers during this period, but due to his lack of Tour success, his team had critics of their abilities. With the win, Ferbey said "the critics now can shove it you know where. There's not questioning anything now". In the women's final, Jennifer Jones of Winnipeg defeated Cheryl Bernard of Calgary 10–8. The two finals were played at the same time in front of about 1,000 spectators. The playoffs were shown television on Rogers Sportsnet.
