    Children and Youth Policy

    • At this time the minimum age for participation in open Introduction to Curling classes is 16 years old. Children younger than 16 often cannot throw the rock the length of the playing surface and tend to lack the focus required to play the game safely with adults.

     


    What to expect at an Introduction to curling class

    JPCC's Introduction to curling class is designed to teach you the basic skills of the sport. The slide, releasing the rock with "handle" and Sweeping. 

    The class is 2hrs in length. We will start the event with a brief safety talk and an explanation of the game of curling. Then we’ll take you onto the ice for roughly an hour of instruction. Moving into about an hour of actual game time, with coaching from our instructors throughout the game.

     

    Arrival
    • Please arrive at least 15 minutes before your event’s start time, and stop by our registration table in the lobby.  You will be asked to sign a liability waiver and make a nametag for yourself. We ask that participants not “pre-game” to excess, as curling requires balance and concentration.  Participants who are visibly intoxicated at arrival will not be allowed on the ice.

     

    What to wear

    All curling-related equipment will be provided. 

    • Shoes:  Wear clean comfortable sneakers with deep treads and rubber soles. Avoid Boots and hard-soled shoes
    • Legs:  Wear loose comfortable slacks.  Sweats, yoga pants, or golf slacks are ideal… jeans are a very poor choice as they are too constrictive and tend to get wet and stay wet (and cold).
    • Torso:  Wear a light sweater /sweatshirt and a light jacket.  Once we start curling and sweeping, the jackets tend to come off.  Some people like to wear gloves, but most find they’re warm enough without them. The average temp in the arena is 30-40 degrees sometimes lower.
    • Head:  A sports helmet (such as a biking or skating helmet) is highly recommended.  Most experienced curlers don’t wear them, but since you can’t be sure how your particular shoes are going to grip the ice, it’s always a good idea for first-timer curlers to wear a helmet.  If you don’t have a helmet, then a knit toque with a thick, soft-brim, or backward baseball cap is better than no protection at all in the event of a fall.
    • Face:  Wear a big cheerful smile ( under your mask) and be ready to have an absolute blast!
     
    Please plan to stay after the lesson for Broomstacking!  The best part of curling. Hang out for a drink with your instructor and other real, local curlers.  

     

    We’re really looking forward to teaching you our sport!
