play in at least one other NCC league will curl free. Novices will pay
regular rates of $110 (10 x $11).

Novices pairs will switch
volunteer pairs after 5 games in order to meet more club curlers and
experience different points of view.

Volunteers can sign up for
5 or 10 games as individuals or couples or as spares. The objective is to
involve as many volunteers as practical.

If any player cannot curl
on a designated night, he/she is expected to contact their skip giving as
much warning as possible. Each team is responsible for finding their own
spares - novice or volunteer. The league rep will maintain and post a list
of spares.
