Tag-Draw Play
Tuesdays/Wednesdays/Thursdays
8:00 am & 10:00 am
Each week, Acton's senior curlers participate in our 'Tag-Draw' league -- meaning that teams are made up on the day of play and
individuals put their tag in whatever position and with whomever they wish. The Convenor, though, reserves the right to move tags
around as need arises to get teams balanced with respect to the numbers of players and by calibre of play.
This season,
the ACC plans to offer six draws -- two on each of Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Wednesdays will open if there is enough
interest/participation. Draws are offered at 8:00 am and 10:00 am each day, with members participating on the days and at the
times of their own choosing. The only rule is that participation is guaranteed on a 'first-come' basis.
