Waghorne Friday Triples
WAGHORNE'S TRIPLES 2025
Great to see so many members again taking part in our Friday night social triples competition, which this year begins on 16 May. We've completed the draw for teams and there will be 14 teams in this year’s competition, as listed below.
There will be two pools, both comprising 7 teams, who will play each other once (total of 6 matches), so each team will have one bye week. For this year both Pools will play on the same day, leaving alternate Fridays for roll-ups or other games. The full timetable of games is listed in the tables below; fixture cards for every player will be available at the club before games begin. Pool fixtures have also been posted on the club website (see Pool A or Pool B pages). The first pool games will take place on Friday 16 May.
Dress for this competition is greys with white or club shirt. All games will start at 6.00 pm prompt and will consist of 14 ends, straight in, no trial ends. You should play in the listed order.
You will be expected to pay for all matches (£6) at your first game, rather than week by week, which will save time wasted in chasing fees, especially when a substitute is to play.
There are 2 points for a win, 1 for a draw. Ties for league position will be decided by shot difference. If still tied, the result between the 2 teams concerned will decide.
The top team in each Pool will play for the trophy on Finals Days, either Saturday 06 or Sunday 07 September 2025.
Substitutes
If for any reason a team member is unavailable, you must use a player from the reserve list (see below) as a replacement. Only one substitute is permitted in a team and the substitute may only act as skip with the agreement of the opposing team. If no reserve is available, as a last resort a player from a team in the other pool may be used. You must NOT under any circumstances use a player from another team in your own pool as a substitute.
If more than one player in a team is unavailable, you must rearrange the match for an alternative date, acceptable to your opponents (for example, you could use one of the spare rinks when the other Pool is playing). If you do reschedule a game, you should inform Andy Todd (competition organiser), so that they can amend the match schedule and give you the match scorecard.
Reserve Players:
The following have indicated that they are willing to step in as reserve if required:
Jan Bowd, Jim Bowd, David Hearle, Angie Langley, David Potter, Angie Utteridge, John Wilden
Reserve Days
We will use the reserve day (22 August), if weather or other circumstances force the postponement of a whole round of matches.
