The Game

A game is played between two teams of four players on a designated area of the rink called a sheet. The sheet is 138 feet long by approximately 14 feet wide. Each team gets eight granite stones which weigh 42 pound apiece. Each stone has a handle bolted into it.
A game is divided into 10 innings called ends. The object of the game is to have the most stones inside a target area with none of your opponents stones inside your stones. Only one team scores in each end and the team that scores receives a point for each stone within the target area and inside the closest stone of the opponent. The stones are delivered from the opposite end of the sheet somewhat like a bowling ball.

Strategy

Curling reminds you a lot of bocce or shuffleboard which most of us have played at the South Jersey shore or on a cruise. It involves a lot of strategy which is why some folks refer to it as "chess on ice."
