Welcome to another season of the Wednesday Night Dutch Inn/Don Lowther Snow Removal Ladder League! In this league. the bottom three teams of the A pool change places with the top three teams of the B pool at the end of each round. The ladder format means that teams play other teams of approximately the same calibre, and adds some variety, as well. At the end of the season, prizes will be awarded to the A pool winner and runner-up in each round, and to the B pool winner of the last round.
ROUND THREE
Round two finished on February 17, with the Bob Fowler rink finishing atop the A pool with a 5-1 win-loss record. Bob MacWilliams, with two losses, was runner-up. There were five teams at 3-3, skipped by John DeLuca, Angus Kennedy, Rupert Sweetapple, Karen Currie and Veronica Smith.  After comparing their scores, the John DeLuca rink had the fewest points, and will move down the ladder to the B pool for the final round. They’ll be joined by the Jeff Taylor rink, who finished at 2-4, and the Hank Kamphuis team, who had one win against five losses.
In the B pool, Derek Gallant went undefeated to move on up to the A pool for the final round Also going  up the ladder are the Karen Montgomery and Paul Neima teams, who had 4-2 records. Five teams finished at 3-3: Ray Biagé, Chris Hodgson, Kathy Reeves, Joerg Soltermann, and Martin Vanderaa., while Colleen Soltermann’s team had one win and five losses.
We will finish up the season with a seven week final round, ending on April 7.  The Rupert Sweetapple rink are heading south for the final round, and will not be joining us, so there will be eight teams in the A pool (no byes), and nine in the B.

Round one wrapped up on Dec. 23, with the Bob MacWilliams and John DeLuca rinks each having only one loss in the A pool. MacWilliams won their very close December 9th encounter, and gets the honours as the round one winner. Third place was between the Bob Fowler and Veronica Smith rinks, with two losses each. The Smith team beat out the Fowler foursome by a 6-4 score in their round robin encounter, and finish third.
Three teams from the A pool will make their way down the ladder to the B pool for the next round. The Ray Biage rink, with two wins, the Karen Montgomery team, with one win, and the Colleen Solterman team, without a win, are those teams.
In the B pool, the Angus Kennedy team had only one loss, and finish in first place. Three teams, skipped by Paul Neima, Rupert Sweetapple, and Jeff Taylor, had two losses. When points were compared, Sweetapple and Taylor will joining Kennedy in the move up the ladder to the A pool, while Neima will remain behind.

ROUND ONE

The League got underway on October 28th, with Qualifier Night, where teams  played other teams chosen at random, with the winning teams going into the A pool, and the runners-up going to the B division. We have a full draw of 18 teams, with one team from each pool of nine receiving a bye each night (please use the bye teams for spares!).  All games will be eight ends, with draws at 6:30 and 8:30.
We will have an eight week round, which will take us until Christmas, and two seven week rounds, Jan. 6 through Feb. 17, and Feb. 25 through April 7 (end date has not yet been provided – possibility it may end a week earlier).

RULES: This is an open, semi-competitive league. Team entry (any combination of male and/or female), partial team and single entry (we will assign you to a team) are permitted.  To keep this league on a more recreational level, no more than two players on one team may be members of the same Tuesday night competitive league team.

No ties: Skips will draw to the button (with sweeping) to resolve individual game ties. Only the throwing team may sweep the rock — the opposing team may not sweep behind the tee (rule clarification to address a question I received last season).

Points will be awarded as follows:

3 points will be awarded for a win, 1 point for a loss, 0 points for a loss by default . Scores will be kept as well, to be used only in end-of-round tie resolution. In the event of a default, the non-defaulting team will receive a score of one point for each scheduled end.

At least one regular team member and at least three players in total must be present to avoid a default. Team members can play any position and can change from game to game. When teams are tied in points after a round, the win/loss record of those teams against each other shall be used to determine their ranking (provided that the two teams faced each other in the round). When the ranking of teams cannot be determined by comparing round win/loss records against the teams involved in the tie, the ranking shall be determined by the score differentials of the teams who are tied. If they are still tied, the full score differentials of the teams who are tied will be used.

In the event of a cancellation, the cancelled week will be played at the end of the round, and all subsequent draws will remain where they were.
