Frequently Asked Questions

What if I don't know how to curl?

The Appleton Curling Club will assign a mentor to new curlers to make sure that they get on a team and get their training they need to enjoy the sport. We conduct a New Curlers Clinic at the beginning of the year to show new curlers the ropes (how to curl, rules, etiquitte, etc.). This usually happens on the first Saturday in December.

Do I need special equipment to curl?

All that you need to curl is the right clothing and a broom. Except for the right clothing, everything that you need is available right at the curling club. As you get more involved in the sport, you may want to purchase curling shoes and your own broom, but to start, all that you need is warm clothing, appropriate footware and the desire to have fun.

How long does the season last?

The curling season at Appleton Curling Club usually lasts from the beginning of November until the middle of March.

Can People of all ages curl?

Curling is a sport for all ages. The Appleton Curling Club has active curling members from age 8 to 80. We have programs for children to teach them to curl using smaller stones until they are ready to play in the games. Curling is truly fun for the whole family.
