Additional entertainment activities – street curling
One of the most important objectives of the Olympic Qualification in Pilsen is to promote curling in the Czech Republic. We firmly believe that we can achieve this not only with good performance of the Czech team on the ice and hours of curling broadcasting on TV, but also with a promotional tour offering a street curling to the public.
Street curling is suitable for people of all ages, including children. It is not played on ice but on a slippery surface that can be placed almost everywhere. Our instructors will be there too and they will introduce curling to you in a fun manner. Just come and enjoy the opportunity to play this Olympic sport!
Why is Street curling so unique:
- The sheet (playing surface) for street curling is 10 metres long and 2 metres wide (it is approx. a quarter of standard sheet for curling)
- The stones weight only 1 kilogram each, therefore children can play it too (the standard curling stones weigh 20 kilograms
- No specific equipment needed, the brooms will be given to you
- The sheet can be placed inside or outside and it requires only a little maintenance
- It imitates the nature of curling but it does not require a perfect technique and so it is possible to play an interesting game immediately after the introduction to this sport
