Triples began in training camps to provide an option for everyone to try all games positions in a modified game sitution. JPCC offered Triples during our short COVID season to better allow for distancing.
Those who chose to try Triples discovered how much fun this fast-paced, six-end game can be. It proved a really great option – and JPCC is delighted to offer it again.
Here’s the short story:
- All three players move up one player position after the second and fourth ends.
- All points scored in ends 5 & 6 are doubled – so no worries if you’re getting drubbed early the game; chances are great you will rebound during the final two ends.
- Only one person sweeps – but since eveery player only sweeps 12 rocks, fatigue really isn’t an issue.
- You get to try all three curling positions – and chances are good you’ll appreciate your teammates more than ever when you slide a mile in their shoes!
- We have modified the JPCC rules (by curler concensus) from the original version and think the game rocks.
