Attire and Equipment
Please bring (CARRY IN, DO NOT WEAR) a pair of clean rubber soled tennis or athletic shoes separate from the shoes that you wear outside. This is to avoid tracking anything on the ice. Do not bring white EVA (Ethylene vinyl acetate) soled shoes, as they do not provide much traction on the ice. Curling attire should be comfortable and practical for the sport. Suggested attire includes pants you are comfortable performing a lunge in and turtlenecks, fleeces, vests, jackets, hats, and gloves. We suggest that you dress in layers so that you can remove one or more layers as you warm up. The temperature on the ice is usually around 40 degrees.
Club step-on sliders, brooms, and stabilizers are available for use.
Testimonials
A fantastic introduction to the sport’s fundamentals that emphasized competency with the motions required to throw and sweep properly, lessons in curling-specific terminology, stretching techniques, safety tips, and the all-important etiquette and good sportsmanship. Small teams enable participants to receive extra advice tailored to their particular needs. By the end of the course I felt I knew some of the coaches and participants not just as players but as fine people as well. Thanks for the fun experience!

The New Curler Clinic was the best way to jumpstart my interest in curling. The staff did an excellent job of teaching the fundamentals of the game with hands-on instruction, valuable teaching moments, and creating a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I would not have picked up the game as quickly as I did if it weren’t for the new curler clinic.
