Competition & rules

Rules

The tournament is played according to the World Curling Federation rules and applies the five-rock rule as well as the no tick rule. The event starts Thursday afternoon and finishes with the final midday Sunday.

LSD

Two LSDs thrown before the first game will decide the hammer in the first game. Two stone practice per team is allowed. First team listed in the schedule plays first.

Thereafter two LSD’s are played after each game, where the ice is better than before a game. No practice stones allowed. In the following game the team with the best LSD’s from the previous game will get the hammer. An accumulated LSD score (worst LSD is deducted) is calculated at the end of the group play, to break possible ties.

Each player must play two LSD’s: one with either turn. LSD starts with clockwise rotation followed by anti-clockwise.

1. W/L record.
