Tuesday Night Men's Ladder
Mississaugua Golf and Country Club
Men’s League Curling
Tuesday and Thursday Night Rules and Regulations
Team Registration:
Teams must register their intent to play by the deadline posted on all registration material. Registration can be completed online at www.mississauguagolf.com.
Once registered, a team is automatically carried forward from one series to the next, including the Club Championship, unless they notify the Curling Office at least two weeks before the end of the current round.
Division Structure:
Teams will be divided into divisions based on the number of registered teams. For each night, there will be one draw if 15 or fewer teams are signed up. If 16 or more teams sign up, there will be two draws on the night.
The committee will do their best to give every team on a given night a similar number of byes/games played during the year. However, depending on the number of teams and movement from division to division, teams may not all play the same number of games.
In general, we expect that movement between divisions after a series will see one or two teams move up and one or two teams move down. This will depend on the need to balance the number of byes and the number of teams in each division.
Initial Team Ranking:
The Curling Professional and Draw Convenor will rank all 'continuing' teams registered for the first series based on previous season results (from the end of the final round). A team is considered a continuing team with three existing team members OR the skip plus one other player.
'New' teams will start in the lowest division.
Team Ladder Scoring:
Points are earned for each game played, and there is no extra play to break ties. The scoring will depend on whether there are two or three divisions in each series.
The new scoring system when there are three divisions is meant to appropriately adjust for different competitive levels based on the divisional setup. For example, with two divisions, the B Division includes the bottom half of the teams. With three divisions, the B Division includes the middle third of the teams. A win in B division when there are three divisions should be worth significantly more than a win in B division when there are two divisions. That is the case this year. Last year, both B divisions got the same points.
When There Are Two Divisions
Division A: 7 points for a win, 4 points for a loss, 5.5 points for a tie
Division B: 6 points for a win, 3 points for a loss, 4.5 points for a tie
When There Are Three Divisions
Division A: 7.167 points for a win, 4.167 points for a loss, 5.667 points for a tie
Division B: 6.5 points for a win, 3.5 points for a loss, 5.0 points for a tie
Division C: 5.833 points for a win, 2.833 points for a loss, 4.333 points for a tie
Default Rules:
A default is recorded as a loss for the defaulting team.
Ladder Standings:
After each series, promotion/relegation to other divisions will be determined based on the highest/lowest average points per game in the series.
Ties in the standings will be broken first by head-to-head games in that series, second by the highest average points per game in the season to date, and failing that, by random draw.
The Men's Curling Committee or Draw Convener will resolve any disputes in the ladder standings.
Prizes:
Recognition will be given to the winning teams of each Division (A, B, C) for each series for both Tuesday and Thursday sections. The winner will be the team with the highest average points per game in the series. If two or more teams are tied for first place, the prize money will be shared equally among the tied teams.
Recognition will be given to the winning team over the entire season for each night. This is determined by average points per game for the entire year. If two or more teams are tied for first place, the prize money will be shared equally among the tied teams.
General Rules:
All games will be played under the Rules of Curling and OCA regulations unless otherwise specified. A copy of the curling rule book is posted in the lounge and available at https://www.curling.ca/rules. The Free Guard Zone 5 Rock Rule will be played during this season. The “no tick” rule does not apply at the club level.
Bell Rule:
The Bell Rule applies to all game times. When the bell rings, teams may finish the end in play plus one more end. The bell signals 1 hour and 40 minutes from the scheduled start. An end is considered complete and a new end started when the last skip’s stone has crossed the near tee-line and is in motion. For example, if the last skip’s stone in the sixth end has crossed the near tee-line before the bell rings, the teams may play eight ends.
Occasionally, the Bell may not ring at all or may not ring at the correct time. In this situation, the skips should confer after the last stone of the sixth end is thrown. If more than 1 hour and 40 minutes has passed since the scheduled start time, the teams may only play seven ends. Also, please inform the curling office that the bell did not ring correctly.
Occasionally on the second draw of the night, the ice may not be available for play until after the scheduled start time. If this happens, the teams should record the actual start time and apply the Bell Rule 1 hour and 40 minutes after the actual start time.
Late Arrival:
Teams should be on the ice and ready to play 5 minutes prior to the designated start time.
If a team is not on the ice ready to commence play at the designated time (unless otherwise stated by the rules governing the competition or league play), a 5-minute grace period will be allowed.
If the delay of the start of play is 6-15 minutes, then one end is considered completed. The non-offending team receives one (1) point and will have the last stone in the second end (first end of actual play).
If the delay of the start of play is 16-30 minutes, then two ends are considered completed. The non-offending team receives one (1) additional point and will have the last stone in the third end (first end of actual play).
If play has not started after 30 minutes, then the non-offending team is declared the winner by forfeit. The club clock in the rink is the official clock.
Rescheduling:
Best efforts should be used to reschedule all regular games. Both teams are expected to make reasonable efforts to find a suitable time to play. If the game cannot be played, the team that originally requested rescheduling will take the loss.
Ends:
All games will be eight ends subject to the Bell Rule. Ties remain as ties and are not broken.
Substitutions:
A team is responsible for ensuring their own substitutes. Teams must have at least three players. When playing with a three-player team, the Lead and Second will throw 3 rocks each. Teams must have one original player for the game to be valid. Spares are to be obtained from the spare list on the club website or any member in good standing. Guests are not allowed to spare in this league.
Reporting of Scores:
The game results and team scores should be entered in the online scoring system immediately after each game. This avoids any later confusion and makes sure the scoring is accurate and up to date. It is generally the responsibility of the Vices to make sure the score is reported. However, if the Vices have left without entering the score, any team member may make the entry on the tablet at the club. Note that vices and skips can also enter the result online via the app or the website, if they forget to enter it on the tablet at the club.
Interpretations and Dispute Resolution:
Any interpretation or disputes associated with scoring or rules will be resolved by the Men's Curling Committee.
