B. J. Neufeld is one of the most popular and richest Canadian curler who was born on February 28, 1986 in Winnipeg, Canada. Brendan “B. J.” Neufeld (born on February 28th in 1986) is an Canadian curler who hails from Winnipeg, Manitoba. Neufeld plays in the third position on the Kevin Koe rink. He began curling at 10 years old and, along with his older sister Denni Neufeld, credits the accomplishments of his father as the reason for his curiosity to the sport of curling. The father of his son is Chris Neufeld who was a three-time Manitoba curling champion as well as a one-time Labatt Brier champion in 1992 with his Vic Peters team.

In the “Road To the Roar 2009 Olympic Qualifier in 2009, the McEwen team was beaten to their fellow Manitobans and the Jason Gnlaugson squad during the semifinals. Neufeld therefore missed out on winning the 2009 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials final despite being the favorite for that particular match against Gunnlaugson.

Neufeld made it to his first provincial final in 2010, when he lost to Jeff Stoughton in the 2010 Manitoba provincial final. The game was being played in Steinbach, Manitoba and as the Neufeld brothers and their father have roots in Steinbach, they were treated very much as the home team and crowd favourites.

Neufeld’s rink once again made it to the Manitoba provincial this time, being the top seed (also ranked 1st in Canada). However, once again lost to Stoughton in the final of the 2011 Safeway Championship, losing by one point in the final end. The McEwen team then lost their third straight provincial final game at the 2012 Safeway Championship, this time losing to Rob Fowler, thus tying a provincial record for consecutive final losses previous set by Kerry Burtnyk from 97-99. This dubious record was avoided in 2013, when the McEwen rink failed to reach the final, but again losing to the rival Stoughton rink in the 2013 Safeway Championship semi-final. Once again, at the 2014 Safeway Championship, the team lost the final to Stoughton.

The end of the 2008-09 season, the McEwen team was 7th on CCA rankings. They made it through the three Grand Slam playoffs, and placed 4th in the 2009 Safeway Championship.

They battled through the playoffs to play Team Sweden’s Niklas Edin rink in the final, losing 7-2. In Grand Slam play, the team failed to win any slams, but did make it to three finals.
