McEwen won six Grand Slams in his career before his team qualified for their first Brier, Canada's national championship in 2016.
[4] In 2003, McEwen and teammates Denni Neufeld, Sheldon Wettig, Marc Kennedy and Nolan Thiessen represented Canada at the 2003 Winter Universiade.
The team then went on to beat Great Britain's Paul Stevenson in the semi-final, then Switzerland's Cyril Stutz in the final, to claim the gold medal.
McEwen would play for Kirkness for two seasons, and won one World Curling Tour event, the Dauphin Clinic Pharmacy Cashspiel.
However, his lone Grand Slam appearance before forming his current rink in 2007 was the February 2006 Masters of Curling event, where he joined up with Ryan Fry.
[7] McEwen started the 2010–11 season off well by defeating provincial rival Jeff Stoughton to win the World Cup of Curling and his first ever Grand Slam title in November, 2010.
[9] The team continued their strong season that year by defeating provincial rival Stoughton in the semi-final of the 2011 Canadian Open.
McEwen would then go on to beat the Glenn Howard team in the extra end of the final, thus winning their second career Grand Slam and their second of that season.
Team McEwen spent the 2014 off season working with a personal trainer, and began spending time with a sports psychologist.
[13] However, their biggest change was adopting new brush heads made by Hardline, which precipitated a huge shift in curling broom technology, which ultimately led to the "broomgate" scandal of the following season.
Early on in the 2015–16 season, Team McEwen found success by winning the 2015 Masters, as well as the 2015 Stu Sells Toronto Tankard and the 2015 Point Optical Curling Classic.
On the tour that season, the team won just two events, the 2016 DeKalb Superspiel and the 2017 Ed Werenich Golden Wrench Classic.
[16] Despite the setback, McEwen still had a chance to qualify for the 2018 Tim Hortons Brier through the wildcard game, which he won over Jason Gunnlaugson.
They had a better tour season, winning the Stu Sells Toronto Tankard, Karuizawa International and the Ed Werenich Golden Wrench Classic.
On the tour, they never missed the playoffs and they won one event, the inaugural WCT Uiseong International Curling Cup.
In Grand Slam play, they reached the quarterfinals of the Tour Challenge and the National and the semifinals of the Canadian Open.
They would still compete at the 2020 Tim Hortons Brier though, winning the Wild Card spot over Glenn Howard in the play-in game.
As the reigning provincials champions, Team Jason Gunnlaugson was chosen to represent Manitoba at the 2021 Tim Hortons Brier.
[25] Because Team McEwen ranked 5th on the CTRS[26] and kept at least three of their four players together for the 2020–21 season, they got the first Wild Card spot at the 2021 Brier in Calgary, Alberta.
