About
Recreational Curling
We are a long-running curling league with an emphasis on recreation and fun. From beginners to experienced curlers, we're the perfect league for people looking to pick up a little bit of extra practice - or just wanting to hang out with friends on a Saturday.
League Guidelines
We are an open league, meaning any person of any gender can play any position.
All games should start promptly at 7:15.
Games are 8 ends long, with a buzzer sounding at 8:55. The buzzer signifies that you finish the end you are playing, and play one more. As such, please keep your pace-of-play in mind. Be ready to throw when it is your turn, and don't take over 2 minutes discussing shot selection.
We use the 5 rock-rule, in accordance with the Calgary Curling Club's league rules. This means that any rock in the free-guard zone may not be removed until AFTER the fifth rock of the end has been delivered.
The league is NOT competition-based even though we keep score and track wins and losses. This is mostly in keeping with tradition, as we have a real boat-anchor of a trophy to award at the end of the season to the first-place team.
We follow all other Curling Canada rules and regulations.
