Curling is a sport where players slide stones across a sheet of ice towards a target area, which is segmented into four concentric circles. Usually two teams compete against each other, each player taking turns in sliding the heavy, polished granite stones (also known as rocks) across the ice to reach the target. The idea of the game is to accumulate the highest score - points are scored for the stones resting closest to the centre of the target. After the curler has thrown his rock, the rocks path can be further influenced by two sweepers with brooms who accompany the rock as it slides down the sheet of ice. using the brooms to alter the state of the ice in front of the stone.
Curling is a strategic, team game, and is ideal for creating a great and enjoyable networking environment with your peers. An activity that will get your strategic mind thinking, and your team work shining.
