Experimental winter league

I have organised a (mini) winter league for three teams, as we didn't make it into our local(ish) one.

The matches will be a limited number of ends (probably seven) but with an extra round of games (three instead of two).  Pairs throughout, six games in total (two per round).  Matches should take around 1½ hours.  Draws are possible, not only for the overall match score but games within a match.

In the Norfolk & Norwich Winter League teams either win 3-0,2-1 or lose by the same scores.  In ours, results can be... 6-0, 5-1, 5-0, 4-2, 4-1, 4-0, 3-3, 3-2, 3-1, 3-0, 2-4, 2-3, 2-2, 2-1, 2-0, 1-5, 1-4, 1-3, 1-2, 1-1, 1-0, 0-6, 0-5, 0-4, 0-3, 0-2, 0-1 and 0-0 (twenty eight possible scores as opposed to 4)!  So, a 3-1 result would mean that two of the games were drawn (3+1+2=6).

Dave.
