Team
Meeting
The team meeting is at 8:15 Saturday morning
Format
Single round-robin with double knockout provision.
Rules of
Play
1.
USCA rules of play govern play unless noted
below.
2.
Games are 8 ends with
extra ends played as necessary. Practice time and rock color are on the
draw schedule.
3.
First practice begins 30
minutes prior to the scheduled draw time. Second practice begins 20
minutes prior to the scheduled draw time. Practice is 8 minutes of
delivery and sweeping.
4.
At the conclusion of each
teams pre-game practice, different players deliver two stones to the tee at
the home end one stone with a clockwise and the other with a
counter-clockwise rotation. Sweeping is allowed. An official measures the
distance between the stone and the tee in inches. The first stone will be
measured and removed from play before the second stone is delivered. The
distances recorded for each stone added together gives the team its LSD total
for that game. The team with the lesser LSD total has the choice of delivering
the first or second stone in the first end of that game. If the LSD totals for
both teams are the same, a coin toss decides which team has the choice of
delivering the first or second stone in the first end. Each
player on the team must throw a minimum of 1 LSD over the course of the
round-robin.
5.
Teams not available for
practice receive an LSD of 73+73=146 (inches).
6.
Be sure to make sure the
official records the LSD as its average (DSC) may be necessary for placement in
the playoffs.
7.
Please post scores
promptly after each end - including the final end.
