General Information

All open curlers are required to have previous curling experience or hire an instructor. Stones are made available at the Ice Arena for all curlers to use. Special curling shoes are available but are not mandatory.

When planning to curl please bring a separate pair of clean, flat-soled tennis shoes that grip the ice well for walking.  Loose fitting pants (not jeans) are recommended.

For the delivery a slider is worn on the sliding foot to allow a long, smooth sliding follow-through. The specially made brooms or brushes needed for the game are also provided by the Ice Arena.
