B) Deer Lodge Senior Men's Curling Club Rules


1.    We do observe the "FREE GUARD" rule.

2.    Curlers must play the position as assigned. Switches in position are permitted only if all members of the rink agree.

3.     If a curler knows he will miss 5 or more games in the next round he should assign himelf to the spare board for the next round in fairness to his team. Please report your In­tentions to the President or to the Spare Board Coordinator.

4.     Spares will be assigned according to the "Executive Meeting Sept. 18th 2002"  {( A regular Member (One whom has paid his fee as a regular) will be first chosen for spare)}  Preference will be given to spares who have not had the opportunity to curl as frequently as others.

5.    a)  A spare must play in the lead position.
       b)  When necessary the Executives have the right to designate a "Regular Paid member"
            to the position of "Skip" for as long as required.

6.     A game is legitimate if played with at least two regular members.

7.     If a spare is borrowed from another rink, the game is legitimate: however if the spare must be borrowed from the opposition rink the game will be forfeited.

8.    NOTE:
ASSIGNING OF SPARES
a)- All spares will be assigned each day at 11:00 A. M.

9. GAME OR QUARTER ENDING IN A TIE:

a) - A game ending in a tie , each team is awarded  (1) point automatically.
b) - A game or a quarter ending in a tie will be broken by each skip throwing a rock, sweeping is allowed, the stone nearest the button decides the winning team. All mem­bers of the opposite team shall be "off' the ice, until the play is completed. A skip rock must reach the house and be in the house to count as being nearest to the button, If neither rocks are in the house skips will throw again.

C) DLCC House Rules

  • LENGTH OF DRAWS
    The bell will ring 1 hour and 40 minutes after the 11:15 starting time.  Play the end in progress and one more.  No extra ends are to be played. For bell purposes, an end shall be considered complete and the next end in play when the last delivered rock of an end has crossed the nearest sweeping line and cannot be replayed. For example if the bell rings when the last delivered rock of end #6 is running between the hog lines then end #7 has already started for bell purposes and end #8 will be considered as the "next end".
