Next is the Cairndinnis competition !

Our next club competition is the Cairndinnis which always causes confusion but shouldn’t.

This is a progressive skips competition whereby :-

1. 1) The normal skip starts as lead for two ends
2. 2) All the other players move up one position i.e. lead to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd & 3rd to skip for the first two ends
3. 3) After two ends are completed all players move up another one position i.e. Lead to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, 3rd to skip and the skip moves down to lead.
4. 4) This rotation happens after every two ends until eight ends are completed or the bell.

Hope this is clear.
