Congratulations to our finalists!

Bonspiel Information

Sign-up and Teams

• Open to Glenmore members only.
• Each member must sign up individually for this event.
• The skips will be chosen by the Calcutta Committee.  The skips will be asked to rank the other skips. This will be tabulated and it will determine the order of the draft.
• We will have a skip meeting for the draft. If a skip is unable to attend, he/she can choose a representative or trust the Calcutta Committee to make the picks.
• The third and second positions will be drafted, as well as leads for the bottom half of ranked teams.
• For the top half of ranked teams, the lead position will be drawn at random from the remaining players.
• The roster of teams will be posted at the club and on the web site at least 24 hours before the auction.
• The club entry fee for this event is $35.

Owners' Pool

• On auction night, teams are put up for sale to the highest individual bidder or syndicate.
• Money collected becomes part of the Owners' Pool.
• 10% goes to the club and 90% towards the Owners' Pool.
  • Out of this 90%: 

    Winner of "A" -	35%
    Runner-up of "A" -	15%
    Winner of "B" -	15%
    Runner-up of "B" -	7.5%
