Curling

About Curling

Curling is a team sport played by two teams of four players on a rectangular sheet of ice. Its nickname, "the roaring game", originates from the rumbling sound the 44-pound (19.96kg) granite stones make when they travel across the ice.

Broom or Brush - There are two types of broom. The most common is a brush or "push broom". The other is a corn/straw/Canadian broom, which, with long bristles, looks much like a normal broom.
