Jocelyn Andrea Peterman (born September 23, 1993)^[2] is a Canadian curler from Red Deer, Alberta.^[3] She currently plays second for the Chelsea Carey rink.

Junior career

Peterman and her team of Britanny Tran, Becca Konschuh and Kristine Anderson won a silver medal skipping Alberta at the 2011 Canada Winter Games, losing to British Columbia's Corryn Brown in the final. The next season, the team represented Alberta at the 2012 Canadian Junior Curling Championships. They won the event, defeating Manitoba's Shannon Birchard rink in the national final. This qualified the team to represent Canada at the 2012 World Junior Curling Championships. After posting a 6-3 round robin record, the team lost to Russia's Anna Sidorova in a tie-breaker match, thus failing to make the playoffs. In 2013, her rink failed to even make the Canadian Juniors failing to even make the playoffs in the Alberta playdowns. In 2014, her last year of junior eligibility, Peterman's team lost in the Alberta junior final to Kelsey Rocque, who would go on to win that year's World Junior championships.

During her junior career, the Peterman team entered a number of World Curling Tour, including the Curlers Corner Autumn Gold Curling Classic twice, which was a Grand Slam event at the time. She would win just one match at the 2012 Curlers Corner Autumn Gold Curling Classic and was winless at the 2013 Curlers Corner Autumn Gold Curling Classic.

Women's career

After juniors, Peterman joined the Heather Nedohin team in 2014, throwing second stones for the team. On the World Curling Tour that season, the team entered four slams, making the playoffs in three. Their best result was a semi-final finish at the Canadian Open. They also played in the 2014 Canada Cup of Curling, finishing in third place. The team played in the 2015 Alberta Scotties Tournament of Hearts, the first provincial championship appearance for Peterman. There, the rink made it to the semi-final, where they lost to Chelsea Carey.

Nedohin retired from curling in 2015, and Chelsea Carey would take over the team as skip. The team would fail to qualify for either Slam they entered that season. They did however win the 2016 Alberta Scotties Tournament of Hearts, defeating Edmonton's Val Sweeting in the final. The win sent Peterman to her first ever national women's championship, the 2016 Scotties Tournament of Hearts. At this event, her team of Carey, Amy Nixon, Laine Peters, alternate Susan O'Connor and coach Charley Thomas went 9-2 in the round robin, clinching the first place seed in the playoffs. The team defeated Jennifer Jones of Team Canada in the 1-vs-2 game and then Northern Ontario's Krista McCarville in the final. Peterman represented Canada at the 2016 Ford World Women's Curling Championship, in Swift Current.
