Curling competition at Paisley, Scotland
The 2005 World Women's Curling Championship was held from March 19–27, 2005 at the Lagoon Leisure Centre in Paisley, Scotland . The tournament was the first since the 1988 event to be held separately from the 2005 Ford World Men's Curling Championship .
The tournament was plagued with problems from the start. Ice conditions were not the best, due to a number of factors, including the arena being located adjacent to a swimming pool. Also, de-ionized water , a standard at major events was not used for the first draws, due to a refusal by the organising committee to pay for it. These ice issues led to the postponement of the fourth draw. Also, ticket prices were very expensive, leading to poor attendance numbers. Due to a dispute with volunteers who wanted to be paid, time clocks were not used. This meant that the on-ice umpire was allowed to pull rocks out of a game as a penalty for slow play. This arguably cost the Russian team a loss in one game.
In the end, it was Sweden , skipped by Anette Norberg who won her first championship, and Sweden's first since 1999, with a win in the final over the United States , skipped by Cassandra Johnson . Norway , skipped by Dordi Nordby won bronze.
Qualifying
Teams qualified for the World Curling Championship in a series of different tournaments depending on their location.

Page playoffs
For the first time ever, the World championships used the page playoff system where the top four teams with the best records at the end of round-robin play meet in the playoff rounds. The first and second place teams play each other, with the winner advancing directly to the final. The winner of the other page playoff game between the third and fourth place teams plays the loser of the first/second playoff game in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final moves on to the final.
