Wildcard Entry?

Every qualifying event is assigned points.  Points are based on the number of teams in that event. Every team will earn points based on their results in each of the qualifying events. Points accumulate based on the results and carry over from event to event. The more events you enter, the more the points will accumulate.  Points are assigned under the Skips name. In the Wildcard berth its important that if the Skip qualifies under a Wildcard slot, at least one other player competed in all the events with him/her. 

Teams gain an entry by winning  any of the qualifying events. If a team has already won an entry by a previous event, then the runner up of the A the berth. If both the 1st or 2nd place teams have earned an entry the berth goes to a Wilcard team.  Another reason why the Wildcard may be offered is if a team who qualifies loses more than two original players or if they have to withdraw for conflicting schedule reasons. The teams with the highest points accumulated in events by the last event will receive a wildcard spot.  

There are 10 events and 16 spots in the Sweepers Cup, a wildcard team will be possible if an eligible team has to withdraw, or if the top two teams have already qualified in an earlier event. Teams may enter many of the bonspiels to gain experience and practice and get a sense of the competition they will come up against for the final event.
