Tuesday Cash Ladder

Welcome to another season of the Tuesday night Cash League at the Rideau!

This year, we have 26 teams split into 3 divisions (8 teams in A, 10 teams in B, 8 teams in C) and will have 3 rounds of 8 games for a total of 24 games in the season. The draws will be at 5:00pm, 7:00pm and 9:00pm and the divisions will rotate through the different timeslots.  At the end of rounds 1 and 2, the two lowest point teams in A and B will move to the next lower division.  The two highest point teams in B and C will move up to the next higher division.

The winning team is responsible to mark up the victory on the website.  Please try and do this by Thursday so that I can create and publish the schedule for the following Tuesday.

The time rule for all draws will be at 30 minutes before the end of the 2 hour time slot (6:30pm, 8:30pm, 10:30pm), you can finish the end you are playing and play one more.

If you are tied at the end of the game, one player on each team will throw a draw to the button (with sweeping) and the closest to the pin gets the win.  You cannot sweep your opposition rock.

We will be using the 'No Tick' rule in games.  From the World Curling site:

R7. NO-TICK SHOT

If, prior to the delivery of the sixth stone of an end, a delivered stone causes either directly or indirectly, an opposition stone in the Free Guard Zone (FGZ) which is touching the centre line to be moved to an off-centre line position or to a position outside the FGZ, the non-offending team has the option to:

I. Remove the delivered stone from play, and replace all stones that were displaced to their positions prior to the violation taking place; or

II. Leave all stones where they came to rest.

If the stone is moved from the centre line to an out-of-play position, then the FGZ rule R6(b) applies.
