Looking to try something new? Curling might be for you!

You don't need any experience to give curling a go — just a sense of fun and a pair of clean, flat-soled shoes. At a Try Curling session a qualified coach walks you through the basics: how to slide out of the hacks, deliver a stone, sweep, and play a friendly end or two. It's sociable, gentle on the joints, and suitable for almost every age and ability. Most people are surprised how quickly they're throwing stones down the ice and laughing with their teammates.
