Four teams will play a three-round, Round Robin tournament through the beginning of 2012 at Anthracite Curling Club.

Draws will take place from 9:45 p.m. until Midnight on the following nights: Dec. 10, Dec. 17 and Jan. 7. The following teams will be competing: Ice Techs, Cracked Ice, Squirrels and Happy Hour.

After the three-week competition, the teams will reorganize and allow more teams to join for a final four-week competition.

If there are no new teams which form in that time, a second three-week competition will be held. On the last curling session of the winter in March, the winners of each Round Robin tournament will play for the Winter championship.

Dec. 10

Cracked Ice (Karampilas) vs. Squirrels (Sophy)

Dec. 17
