The game originated in Scotland and was brought to Canada probably in the 1500's.\n\nIt is probably called curling because the rocks curl when you deliver them by putting either an in turn or out turn on the rocks handle as you release it from your hand. They are made of granite form Scotland and weigh 40 pounds.\n\nIt's all very weight and ice sensitive  as to the amount the rock will curl.\n\nGenerally speaking the softer you release(throw) the rock the more it will curl and the faster you release it the less it will curl.\n\nYou are pushing forward with your back leg from the hack and sliding on your front foot(opposite leg) which has a slider on the sole.\n\nIt's all too complicated to answer properly in a short amount of time but it is a fun game and can be played by most people at varying degrees of skill.

Cricket can take days to finish, but as far as pace goes - curling.  I fell in love with the sport after the Olympics, but when you have a sport that allows you 1 hour of "discussion time", how much action can you have?!

The origins of the word curling are not known. It was first used in print in 1630 in Perth, Scotland. Also known as "the roaring game" (because of the sound the stones make while travelling over the pebble), curling probably does not take its name from the motion of the stones. In the early history of curling, the rocks were simply flat-bottomed river stones which were sometimes notched or shaped; the thrower had little control over the rock, and relied more on luck than skill to win. One possible derivation is that it came from the old verb curr which describes a low rumble. Nevertheless, today a rock which deviates from a straight line is said to curl.

Curling is a precision team sport similar to bowls or bocce, played on a rectangular sheet of prepared ice by two teams of four players each, using heavy polished granite stones which they slide down the ice towards an archery-like target called the house. Points are scored by the proximity of a team's rocks to the center of the target. The level of precision and complex nature of the strategic thinking required to win has led curling to be referred to as "chess on ice."\n\nOrigins and history\nThe game was probably invented in late medieval Scotland, with the first written reference to a contest using stones on ice coming from the records of Paisley Abbey, Renfrew, in February, 1541. Two paintings (both dated 1565 [1]) by Pieter Brueghel the Elder depict Dutch peasants curling (Scotland and the Low Countries had strong trading and cultural links during this period, which is also evident in the history of golf).\n\nThe word curling first appears in print in 1620 in Perth, Scotland, in the preface and the verses of a poem by Henry Adamson. The game was (and still is, in Scotland) also known as "the roaring game" because of the sound the stones make while travelling over the pebble (droplets of water applied to the playing surface). The word derives from the Scots language verb curr [2] which describes a low rumble (a cognate of the English language verb purr). The word does not take its name from the motion of the stones, which due to their deviation from a straight-line trajectory are said to curl.\n\nIn the early history of curling, the rocks were simply flat-bottomed river stones which were sometimes notched or shaped; the thrower had little control over the rock, and relied more on luck than skill to win, unlike today's reliance on skill and strategy.\n\nOutdoor curling was very popular in Scotland between the 16th and the 19th centuries as the climate provided good ice conditions every winter.\n\nScotland is home to the international governing body for curling, the World Curling Federation, Perth, which originated as a committee of the Royal Caledonian Curling Club, the mother club of curling.\n\nToday the game is most firmly established in Canada, having been taken there by Scottish emigrants. The Royal Montreal Curling Club, the oldest active athletic club of any kind in North America, was established in 1807. The first curling club in the United States began in 1832, and the game was introduced to Switzerland and Sweden before the end of the nineteenth century, also by Scots. Today, curling is played all over Europe and has spread to Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and even China and Korea.\n\nThe first world curling championship in the sport was limited to men and was known as the "Scotch Cup" held in Falkirk and Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1959. The first ever world title was won by the Canadian team from Regina, Saskatchewan, skipped by Ernie Richardson.\n\nCurling has been an official sport in the Winter Olympics since the 1998 Winter Olympic Games. In February 2006, the International Olympic Committee retroactively decided that the curling competition from the 1924 Winter Olympic Games (originally called Semaine des Sports d'Hiver or International Winter Sports Week) would be considered official Olympic events and no longer be considered demonstration events. Thus, the first Olympic medals in curling, which at the time was played outside, were awarded for the 1924 Winter Games with the gold medal won by Great Britain and Ireland, two silver medals by Sweden and the bronze by France.\n\n\nBasics of the game\nCurling is played on a rectangular sheet of prepared ice into which two round, painted, archery-like targets (called the house) have been embedded. The game involves two teams of four players. These teams are called rinks and named for the team’s captain, who is known as the “skip”. Each team has eight polished granite stones, called stones or rocks, with which they try

I love watching curling on TV - I even taped it during the Olympics so I could watch the US in their bronze medal match.  I've never played it, the nearest place to play is like 200 miles away, but I find the game really interesting in a quirky way.  It seems like bowling on ice - the kind of game that you could still play even after a couple of beers!!!
