From Regina they flew off to Perth, Scotland to represent Canada at the World Junior Championships. In Perth, it came down to a measure but the Manitoba foursome took to the podium to be crowned World Champions.

Kelly was named the All-Star skip and also won the sportsmanship award at the Canadian Championships.
