Only one member of each team should register for the entire team.  Registration for local teams will be handled differently than registration for out-of-town teams as follows:

Local Team Registrations:
A local team is defined as a team where three or more of the teammates are SPCC members. A ‘lottery’ system will be used to determine which 24 local teams are awarded spots in the bonspiel and the order of the wait list. The 2009 Winter Carnival Bonspiel 1st Event Winner (team Nunberg), Event Chair (Strack) are automatically awarded two of the 24 spots.

Requirements:

  1. A complete team of 4 players must be registered.
  2. Each person can only be registered on one team.
  3. All team members must be in good standing with all club dues paid. Persons or teams attempting to bend the rules by submitting multiple entries will be disqualified from the lottery.

Team registrations must be received by noon on Friday, December 18, 2009. Registration closes at noon on Dec. 18th for SPCC teams only. If needed, a lottery will be held that evening.  Out-of-town teams have until Jan. 6th. to register. Payments may be submitted to the club or committee members. Any teams that have not paid their entry fee by this date will lose their spots.

Out-of-town Team Registrations:
An out-of-town team is defined as a team where two or more of the members of the team are not members of SPCC. We are reserving 24 slots, filled first-come-first-serve, for out-of-town teams until Wednesday, January 6, 2010. Please register a complete team. Once your registration has been confirmed by the committee, we will require you to pay your full team entry fee by paying on-line, calling the club with your credit card number, or mailing a check to the SPCC. Payment must be received by 5pm on Monday, January 15, 2010 or the spot will be awarded to a wait-listed team.
