Formula
This league  is base on the concept of "triples". Yes, it is for 3 players, 6 stones, 6 ends (by 3 mini-games of 2 ends) and rotation after 2 ends.

The principle

  1. The game is divided into 3 mini-games of 2 ends, i.e. 6 ends in total;

  2. The hammer changes at each end except for the start of the third mini-game where the losing team will have the hammer first;

  3. The position changes after each 2 ends (mini-game).

Scoring
Each mini-game is worth 2 points except the third which is worth 4 points. In other words :

  1. Within the mini-game, we count points as in a regular game to determine who wins the mini-game = winner gets 2 points;

  2. This applies to the first mini-game (ends 1 and 2) and the second mini-game (ends 3 and 4);

  3. Third mini-game (ends 5 and 6) is worth 4 points;

  4. In the case of a tie in a mini-game we split the points;

  5. In case of a tie after 6 ends – draw to the button by each player determines the winner of the night;

This avoids a situation of 100 to 0, and gives the losing team a chance to equalize the game and maybe even win the game.
