Sweeping equipment, game times and measurements.
All players must use WCF approved sweeping pads and follow WCF rules regarding sweeping.
There will be no time-clocks during the event so we ask the teams to strive after a quick pace of play and a maximum of 2 hours per game. Teams are responsible for measuring their own stones. If the teams can’t agree, then you can call for an umpire.
Pre-event practice
All teams have 9 minutes practice on each sheet on Wednesday morning. Two teams on each sheet. Please see allocated times in the schedule.
