RULES AND INFORMATION
£3 entrance fee to be paid on the first evening that you play together with 50p for the evening (i.e.
£3.50 for your first session and then 50p each time you subsequently play).
50p to be paid each time you play. Money to be put into your team’s plastic wallet.
Green ranger to ensure rinks are ready for play by 6.30pm and to collect all wallets and signed
score cards and place in box provided.
Cash prizes for winners, runners up and third place in the league.
The league consists of 14 ends. No trial ends. If a game needs to be abandoned after the start it is
only deemed a proper game after 10 ends are completed – otherwise it will need to be
rearranged.
Towards the end of the season, when the evenings are drawing in, we will alter the start time and
NOT the number of ends played. This decision will be made by the organiser and relayed to the
participants in advance.
A dead end (as defined by the EIBA) shall not result in penalty shots nor be counted as played.
If you are unable to play on any of your allocated evenings, it is your responsibility to arrange for
another member of your team to take your place in the first instance.
If you cannot field a team from your own team, you may ask a club member who is not assigned to
another team to take your place.
A team consists of 3 players; however, if only 2 players are present at the start, the team shall
forfeit 33% of its total score. (The team with 2 players – lead 4 woods, skip 4 woods. The team
with 3 players – lead 2 woods, second 2 woods, skip 4 woods). A player arriving late may join the
team in play if not more than 4 ends have been completed, but the team shall forfeit 33% of its
score for those ends already played. A team failing to be present for play by 15 minutes after the
start time shall forfeit the game. The opponents will be awarded 2 points and 5 shots.
Two points will be awarded for a win and one for a draw. The difference between “shots for” and
“shots against” will be used to determine league places if points are equal.
Each team will be expected to act as green ranger when specified by the league programme.
