Le Pine Club Fours Tournament

Saturday 5th April 2014

Prize Money $$$$

The Le Pine Tournament is only open to playing and social members of CCBC

A day of fun and relaxation to celebrate the end of the pennants season and the start of Winter Bowls. A day to bring along friends and family.

The event will be run as a multi-tier event allowing all members to compete fairly at their own level of skill. Format of the event will be a round robin carnival based on our Saturday Pennants teams. Those members who do not normally play in the Saturday Pennants may be allocated to a team. Those not selected for the Pennants sides will play in an individual proportional (CAMS) match.

Pennants teams will play 3 games of 8 ends (fours) against the other teams in that division side. There will be a 20 minutes break between matches. The winning team in each division will be determined by:the number of games won, and in the event of a tie by the shot difference.

Other members will play an individual proportional match of 21 ends in two segments (10/11). We should be able to fill 3 rinks with non-pennants & social members.

Prize Money will be equally allocated between the 3 competitions
