Three games in one day./Three games in a row.
Czech Ladies Curling team is ready to test ability of their rink to play three games in one day during the World Curling Championship 2021 in Calgary.
Based on WCF's decision to move the draw No. 7 to the very end of the championship schedule a unique opportunity appeared. Czech women will be the first ladies team ever playing three championship games in one day with almost no break for rest, catering or recovery. It will happen this Friday during the World Women Curling Championship which takes place within the "Calgary Curling Bubble". One game might take more than four hours including transportation from the hotel to the arena and back, the warm up, practice, ten-end game, extra end and stretching session. The entire three-game action contains almost two tons of granite thrown per player, roughly four kilometres of sweeping per sweeper. It means more than twelve hours of hard work in total. Friday games of the Czech team will be certainly monitored by the WCF officials, health authorities, athlete commission members, umpires and certainly players themselves. Information obtained thanks to the Czech team could help to the World Curling Federation build new standards for the future.
The Czech women's curling team is ready to test its ability to complete three matches in one day at the 2021 Women's World Curling Championships in Calgary.
The World Curling Federation has decided to move game round seven to the very end of the championship, opening up an extraordinary opportunity. The Czech national team will be the first women's team ever to play three championship matches in one day with virtually no rest, refreshment or regeneration. It will happen this Friday during the 2021 Women's World Curling Championships at the "curling bubble" in Calgary. A single game can last more than four hours and includes transportation from the hotel to the arena and back, warm-up, on-ice pre-game practice, a ten-end game, an extra end and post-game stretching. The three games include nearly two tons of shoveled rocks per player and roughly four kilometers of paved track for one scorer. All together, that's more than twelve hours of hard work. Friday's matches by the Czech women will certainly be monitored by the World Curling Federation (WCF), medical staff, members of the athletics committee, umpires and the players themselves. The information gained through the Czech team can help the WCF build and adjust new standards for future championships.
