About the “Skins” format
In the Skins format, teams compete for “skins” assigned to each end rather than counting stones. Whoever has the most skins at the end of a game wins that game. Likewise, the team with the most skins at the end of the tournament wins the event. Each skin has a value, so every team has a good chance of taking home some winnings.
Ends 1 & 2 = 1 skin each
Ends 3 & 4 = 2 skins each
Ends 5 & 6 = 3 skins each
A skin is won by:
With hammer: scoring 2 or more points
Without hammer: stealing 1 or more points
If no team wins an end, the hammer changes hands and the skins roll over to the next end. If the final end is not decided, a draw-to-the-button challenge determines the winner.
Format of play
The first three rounds will be played as round robin in groups of four
Fourth round combines all groups; teams will meet each other based on ranking
Top 10 plays the final round
Format of play is subject to change, depending on number of participating teams.
