Teams and Draw Times
Please see Teams and Draw Times HERE.
Rules
The 2024 Memorial Bonspiel is a 28 team, seven division, pointspiel. Opening draws are round robin, intra-divisional play. Teams that win their pools (and highest scoring second place team) will advance to the Championship Event and will be seeded based on total points. The next 8 highest scoring teams will advance to the Consolation Event, the 8 after that to the Opening Act, and also will be seeded based on total points. For seeding purposes, total point ties will be broken by: 1. H2H result, 2. Wins, 3. Ends, 4. Rocks,
All round robin games are 7 ends. All Thursday, Friday, and Saturday games are scored only through six ends for total rocks and ends (so you can quit after 6 if score dictates). Bell rule is also in effect (so please play fast). At 1:25, you may finish current end and play one more. Points for round robin play:
- 30 points for a win
- 15 points for a tie (ties not broken)
- 4 points for each end
- 1 point for each rock
You must have three people on a team to start a game. Late arrivals may join the game only after the completion of an end. If three members of a team are not ready to start at the scheduled time, the team will be penalized 1 point and the loss of an end, repeating every 10 minutes thereafter and loss of the hammer to start the game. Sunday games are eight ends with ties broken by playing a full additional end.
Hog Hat
Did your rock get hogged??? Throw on the hog hat until the next person hogs a stone. Stay safe out there!

The Memorial
Fred M. Hauserman was a Charter Member of the Mayfield Curling Club when it was founded in 1962. In the early seventies, Fred was killed in an accident on the autobahn while on business. He was the first of the Charter Members to pass away. In recognition of his support, the curlers established the Fred M. Hauserman Trophy to memorialize him and the final bonspiel of the season. Several years later, the bonspiel was renamed The Memorial to honor all curlers that had crossed the divide.
The Memorial Bonspiel embraces good fellowship and good curling. Our predecessors would not have it any other way. This year, raise a toast to our members and former members that we have lost during the past year: Henry Chisholm, Buzz Rosenfeld, Marianne Kerr, and Joanne Lane.
Thank You
We hope you had a great time. Thank you to everyone who helped make the 2024 Memorial a success. We could not have run it without you.
