Brier action had to be delayed on one sheet of ice Tuesday morning after a leak in the Brandt Centre roof.
Play between Yukon and Newfoundland and Labrador on Sheet B was delayed for around 20 minutes after players told officials water had started to drip onto the ice.
A bucket could be seen on the ice catching water drops as ice technicians worked to fix the problem.

In a press release from the Regina Exhibition Association Limited (REAL) Tuesday afternoon, they said “a drip was observed on to one of the Brier playing surfaces, resulting in a stoppage in play to investigate.”

“REAL determined that a combination of interior building temp, combined with the cold outside air, was causing the development of condensation on a protruding apparatus connected to a roof antenna. The condensation thawed and developed a small drip on to the ice surface below.”
They went on to say the issue was rectified by adjusting the pipe position and redirecting the accumulation of water to a collection point.
