The national team first decided who might be part of the national team in September 2017 in Incheon, South Korea.[7] The second time when the national team said some people may not be able to go was at an event in Green Bay, Wisconsin in October 2017.[7] The final choice of who would be on Team USA for the 2018 Games was made at USA National Team event in Wausau, Wisconsin in early November 2017.[7]

Before the Games started, American wheelchair curlers had a few important dates in preparation for the Games. These included the U.S. Open in Utica, New York in December 2017, the Kisakallio Cup in Kisakallio, Finland in January 2018, and Sochi Open in January 2018.[7]
