First Week of President's Cup

Week One of the President's Cup and already I have problems.  This is the competition where the skip leads the team and the third skips the team and I never know who to put as winning the games. So for the moment the teams are still known by the skip's name. I may change that as the weeks go by, just so you can all be as confused as I am.

The next problem is that the ice rink couldn't give us the sheets of ice we wanted for this competition and this is why two teams got byes on the first week. The committee decreed that each of those teams would receive 1 point, 4 ends and 4 shots.

There were only three games on the ice tonight and the winning teams were  Ken Ross (Ernest Mutter), Colin Naismith (Robert Charters) and Jim Dunlop (Richard Morrison).

The league table is here.

Next week instead of the President's Cup we are playing our annual match for the Drew Duncan Quaich.

The draw is taken from the finishing positions in the Fraser Cup and is as follows:

Colin Naismith  v   George Hay
Allan Hastie     v   Francis McCrossin
Jim Dunlop       v   Ken Ross
Peter Kennedy  v   Peter Galloway

The game will be over 8 ends with each player skipping for two ends.  If there are only three players, the first two players will skip for three ends and the normal skip for two.

There will be a meal after the game.
