Twin Anchors update : the playoffs

This is how the playoffs looks like. All matches started at 9:00am pacific time. It is 3-3 after 3 ends, but Team Bernard has the hammer.

Twin Anchors Update : Match 5

Team Bernard won their fifth match which gives them straight access to the playoffs. They end the Round Robin with 4 wins and only one loss.

Twin Anchors update : Match 4

Team Bernard still has the lead 3-1 in Pool A but they lost this match to Team Backe 5-3. Winning their last match will ensure a straight participation to the playoff. Otherwise, they will have to play a tiebreaker. But with the curling they have been playing during this tournament, they won’t need to!

Twin Anchors update : Match 3

Team Bernard keeps a perfect record defeating Team Lewis with an impressive score of 8-0. Next match in a few hours: another victory will ensure their participation in the playoffs.

Twin Anchors Update : Match 2

Strong start for Team Bernard as they won their second match against team Fujisawa 7-2. Unlike the first match, they didn't let a chance to their opponents. In fact, they didn't have to finish the seventh end.

Twin Anchors Update : Match 1

Yep, that is a very good way to start a tournament: a 7-5 victory over Team Mallett. I let the stats do the talking! I hope to be able to find some pictures by the end of the tournament.

2010 Twin Anchors

The 2010 Twin Anchors starts this Thursday, September 30th at the Vernon Curling Club, BC. This year's competition includes 24 teams. This is a round robin tournament with 4 pools. The 2 best teams of each pool will get a pass for the playoffs.

This tournament was included in 2004 in the women’s calendar event, and Mrs. Bernard won the first 2 editions. In 2004, Cheryl and Susan were teaming up with Jody Mcnabb and Karen Russ. They made it all the way to the final beating Kelly Scott in Final. And it hadn’t been easy: they had to win a tiebreaker to make it to the playoffs.

In 2005, Team Bernard as we know it today, won it again with a perfect record of 7-0 defeating Kristi Lewis in final. In fact, this tournament is usually a good one for Team Bernard. The only year they couldn’t make it to the playoff was in 2008 losing in a tight tiebreaker, but they did great last year with a final.

This year, Team Bernard is part of Pool A. Here’s the schedule and their opponents in this pool. You can read more about it and follow the score here but in any case, I will keep you inform on a daily basis.
