Thursday Two Person Stick League (NEW)
The two person stick league is a new trial league to HCC. This league is open to all levels of curlers, including wheelchair curlers. This league will enable new stick curlers or those with limited mobility to play a game without the need to move up and down the ice.
How the Game Works:
Team Structure: Teams consist of only two players. One player stays at each end of the ice for the entire game and never crosses centre ice.
Format: Games last for 6 ends and typically take about 1 hour to play.
Delivery: Players use a Delivery Stick to push and release the rock from a standing or stationary position, removing the need for a traditional sliding delivery.
Scoring & Rocks: Each player delivers 6 rocks per end, alternating shots with the opposing player at their end while their teammate acts as skip.
Sweeping Rules: Sweeping is only allowed from the hog line to the back of the house at the playing end.
Free Guard Rule: No stones can be removed from play by either team until at least 3 rocks have been played in an end.
Initially, a tag format will be used.
Game time: Thursdays 9:30 am
