Club Information


What happens when…………?

·         I need a sub

Contact Jim Paxton (jimpaxton958@gmail.com). He will advise who might be available. You should then contact available subs to check availability. Players in the non-playing team should only be asked if none of the pool of subs is available. Let both Jim and your skip know who is going to sub for you (Skips, let your third know). The sub will then pay the ice money on the night

·         I cannot get a sub

Let your skip know that you have exhausted all possibilities. You will still be responsible for paying the Ice Money for that game

·         I forget to turn up for a game (or at short notice am unable to play, no time to get a sub)

You are still liable for the ice money

·         My sub fails to turn up

This is between you and your sub. The ice money is still due, and it is your responsibility to find out who paid it for you on the night

·         Only three players have turned up for a game

The game goes ahead, with the first two players throwing three stones each. Fullarton do not apply a shot penalty to teams of three 

·         Lack of subs / player means that fewer than three players are available for a match

If this is known in advance, then it is the responsibility of the skip who is short of players to try to arrange a suitable alternative date (AGM 2013). If this is not possible (or there is no time to arrange this), then the match is forfeited, with the winning team awarded 5 ends, and 6 shots (as per RCCC rules)

·         Where in the team can a sub play?

A sub should play no higher than the team position of the player they are replacing, unless they are subbing for the skip, when the third should move up to skip. It is up to the skip to decide order of play (taking this into account). A sub may only skip if both the third and skip are not playing (AGM 2013)
