Curling is Harder Then you Think!

 

I went curling for the first time a few weekends ago at the Vancouver Curling Club with the Downtown Networking Association and I could not believe how difficult it was.  I learned: 

-General curling terminology

-The layout of the sheet

-How to curl the stone

-How to sweep (it’s a great workout!)

The big lesson I learned: Do not make fun of curling on TV. It actually takes great skill and takes years to master. 

After my one time curling lesson, I will not make the Canadian Curling Olympic team as I previously thought I could.
