Thanks to all who joined us in September 2024 - The information below pertains to the 2024 Over-Under
The goal of the Over - Under Spiel is to encourage people newer to curling to go bonspieling and face opponents with similar levels of experience. Each team must contain at least two members each with five years or fewer of curling experience, and can have up to two members over five years of experience each.
Whether this will be your first bonspiel, you want to gain experience with your 5 & under team, or you want to encourage some members of your club to travel to their first event, we hope you'll give this social, relaxed, but still competitive bonspiel a shot!

FAQ
Q: What if I have 3 "unders"? What about 4?
A: That's fine! No more than 2 "overs" per team.
Q: What about the alternate?
A: As long as the fielded team complies with the rules, you're fine.
Q: What if I have a team of three? Can we have 2 "overs" and 1 "under"?
A: No. Your team must have at least 2 "unders".
Q: My "under" had to back out at the last minute. Can I sub an "over" in their place?
A: Only so long as the team that is actually fielded complies with the team composition rules.
Q: Can I form at team with Niklas Edin, Oskar Eriksson, and two 5th-year curlers?
A: You're kinda missing the spirit of the event, but yes, bring it on ;)
Q: I like rules. Can you formally state the team composition rule?
A: At any point during any game, there must be at least 2 players on each team with 5 or fewer years of curling experience. Any game played with a team in violation of this rule will be forfeited by the offending team. The number of years of experience is calculated in the same manner as the GNCC 5-and-under events, which is explained by Rule 7 in the GNCC 5yr and Under Rules. Furthermore, a curler who has played in five Over-Under Bonspiels is automatically considered to be an "over" in future Over-Under Bonspiels. Triangle Curling reserves the right to investigate eligibility from any participant's home club.
