Spare Rules
-
All Skips are to declare their spares and positions to the opposing Skip before
the beginning of the game.
-
A spare from the League's Official Spares List or regular member can only play a
maximum of 2 (two) games for the same team per round.
-
All Spare Players shall be a player from the League's Official Spares List. If no
player is available from the list, an eligible player from the League's regular
membership may act as a spare, subject to Rules 4 to 7.
-
If a spare player(s) is/are selected from the Official Spares List, then the spare
player(s) can play at the position of the player being replaced or lower in the
line-up.
-
If a spare player is chosen from the Leagues Membership, then that spare player
must throw lead rocks.
-
If two (2) spare players are chosen from the League Membership, then those players
must throw lead and second rocks.
-
If both an official spare from the Leagues Official Spares List and a League Membership
Player are required to spare, the Official League Spare will follow Rule #4. The
League Membership Player must throw lead stone or second stone in the case the official
spare is playing lead.
-
To avoid teams from bringing in outside players and adding them to the Official
Spares List during regular season play, all additions to the list, once season has
started, must be approved by the Organizers. All additions to the Official Spares
List will be posted on the website accordingly.
-
Spares from the Official Spares List will pay $7 each time they are called to spare
for each game played, up to a maximum of $105 for the season. Spares must indicate via
League Buddy that they will play, and then will be invoiced a few times per season.
-
Any violation of the Spares Rules will result in a game default for the offending
team which is recorded as a 3-0 loss, or the final score whichever favours the non-offending
team.
