Skip Rocks - Clause Samples

Skip Rocks - i. Each team shall elect one player to deliver one rock from the far hack. The stone may be thrown with someone holding the broom and with their own team sweeping (under the regular rules of curling). When the stone comes to rest, it is measured for closeness to the center pin and removed for the next team to throw. ii. Sweeping behind the tee by the non-throwing side is allowed if skip rocks are being thrown to decide a game. If it is to decide a tie-breaker for the round, then opposition sweeping is not allowed (this is because all teams involved might not necessarily be present at the time). iii. The team whose rock is deemed to rest closest to the center pin shall be the winner of this contest.
