teams and you try to get the thing in the ring thats about all l know...not really that hard all you have to do is judge the speed right and try to knock the other person out of the the ring...try lookin it up on google and see what you get..

curling is when the people, usually buff men, take the hand-sized barbells and bring them up to their shoulder with one hand. it works your biceps.
this is just what l know from having 3 brothers.. l could be wrong but this is just what l know about it. l did not know it was an Olympic sport.

its singles or teams and they 'curl' a 'stone' which actually is a stone with a handle on it. they slide it down an ice track to a target. closest wins.

it is NOT athletic, there is some skill involved. it is played at the olympics. it can be multisex. there are scores. look it up on wikipedia.com it is a bit boring looking really, probably for older people.

curling is a european(scottish l think) sport where u have a long rectangle of ice & 2 sets of rings called ''houses''. now the teams r made of the lead, second, third, & skip(the last to throw & also the captain). there r 8 stones per end(which is like an inning in baseball or a period in hockey or a quarter in lacrosse) & the idea is to get as many stones on the button(the centre of the ''house'') while knocking out the opposing teams' rocks. it is an olympic sport & is normally dominated by canada in my opinion
