Doubles League: New this year will be an open doubles league. You may sign up as a team or I'll make up teams from those who sign up as individuals. This league will run differently than other leagues primarily for two reasons (info on the web site league sign up is minimal, I hope this writeup helps)
1) we don't have a large enough fixed time slot to schedule this league to play all games
2) people have said they don't want to commit every weekend to play a league
We're addressing this by having this league's teams schedule their own games. On the calendar there will be time slots every Saturday to play 4 games. As a team you will decide if you want to play and pick an opponent. This will all be coordinated using the TeamReach app. So, you'll chat with the other teams asking if they want to play. Once you have a game setup you'll grab ice time via the TeamReach app AND/OR on the NCC web site. We'll play two distinct 'seasons', one in the fall and one in the spring.
- In each season a team must play 7 games (in the course of 10-12 weeks)
- You may play more than 7, but your best 7 will count (in fact many teams will have to play more than 7 so all teams get to play 7)
- A team can play each other team only once.
- A team can play 2 games on the same day if you can schedule it
- Games take 1 1/2 hours (8 ends with a clock)
I will keep a league status/standing updated every week on the NCC web site so you can see which teams have played who and the game results.
Saturdays at 12pm and 1:30pm will be reserved for doubles play. Sunday (6pm), Wednesday(8:30pm) and Thursday(8:30pm) evenings are open ice time available to all members so doubles teams can grab these slots to play games. Or you can play a game any week day during the day, any holiday when ice is available, essentially whenever YOU can make it happen (just coordinate using TeamReach and grab ice time on the NCC web site)
I hope to have a intro to doubles session on the ice right when it's ready (Oct 29th - Nov 3)
