How do you get a point in curling?

The quick answer- The Game is played between two four-member teams who use stones with different colored handles. Each game consists of ten ends, which are similar to innings in baseball. During an end, each team member alternates throwing stones toward a circular target area, called the house, the center of which is approximately 93 feet away. Only one team scores points per end. The team with their stones closest to the center of the target area, called the button, gets one point for each stone between the button and the opposing teams nearest stone. After each end is completed, play is switched to the house at the other end of the sheet. \n\n===============\nRules of Curling \nThe following link will take you to informative websites with in-depth discussions on the rules of curling:\n\nCurling Rules - World and Canadian curling rules, including animated descriptions of various curling techniques \n\nCurling Fundamentals - Simple discussions of curling fundamentals for delivery, sweeping, and strategy. \n \nhttp://www.curldc.org/about/rules.php

well there are 6 players on the court from one team at a time. 7 if you have a DS. it's not a timed sport you play for points. you play by getting the ball over the net by passing or setting or hitting without hitting it out of bounds. you score by having the other team hit it out or having them not get it over in their three tries. you win by winning 2 out of three games to 25 or 3 out of 5 fames to 25. depends on the rules. basically the back row wants to pass the ball to the setter so the setter can set up the hitter to slam the ball in the other teams face =]

At a meet: In sprints it is good to focus on being the first person to have your feet on every wall.  In long distance events, it is a good idea to play catch up... you catch up to someone and pass them, then you look for the next person you can see ahead of you and catch up to and pass them, etc., and this can continue as you are lapping people.\n\nIn practice, for each set, pick something you want to work on and focus on that for the set.  Like if your coach gives you a long boring set, you can decide that you are going to work on fast flip turns, or that you are going to try to streamline as far as you can off every wall, making it a competition for yourself to keep it going without losing form or distance off the wall.  Breath control also gives you something else to focus on and keeps you in rhythm (breath every 3 strokes, 5 strokes, etc. by 25).

Okay, the object, as you should know is to get the yellow ball over the net, and inside the lines. If you are playing 1 on 1, use the inside lines. if you are playing 2 on 2, then you have that extra area on the side to hit it in, the valley. You may want to start off just hitting the ball back and forth with your partner. But you want to follow through on your shots, at first just hitting it may seem like a good idea, but eventally you will suck. If you start off following through your shots (you will be bad at first) but you eventally will get better.\n\ncheck out the link for more info...

The hacks are put in temprarily, and either frozen in, or drilled in. When the curling is done, they take them out and re-freeze the ice. Hockey ice is also very different from curling ice and has to be treated differently anyway...\n\nSkating rink ice is generally pretty awful by curling-club standards, and is usually quite a bit harder to play on.

You would first need to acqire a play-level rating. This can be obtained by entering the qualifying at small tournaments. From there, depending on how far you progress in the tournament, you would gain points. The more points you gain, the easier it is to advance to larger tournaments. With enough points, you would gain direct entry into the larger tournaments, as opposed to having to qualify. If you do well enough at theses smaller tournaments, at some point, you would progress to being in the tour-level tournaments you see on TV.

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.

for me to hit a draw, the first thing I do is widen my stance. I will take a few practice swings normally to see the path of the club coming thru at impact. next I will round out my swing and play the ball a little back in the stance. If you are right handed then you need to swing the club and at the finish your club should point at 2 o'clock.

Easiest way is to do pool play for each activity. When each team is seeded and the tournament for that activity is over, award points for the place they came in. For example, first place wins 10 points, 2nd earns 9 pts., 8th earns 8 pts and so on. Then you total the points in each category (pool, Darts, foosball)., and the team with the most points wins the tournament.

Assuming you're a beginer, practice all your simple "J'' turns using both your toeside edges and heelside edges. once you have your edges down start pointing your board down the hill, each time going further and further. but remember you must have your turns and stopping down before you start shooting down the hill. \n\nIf you post another question telling exactly what you need work on, i could answer better.

put out your right hand onto the table finger tips touching the tables but palm up, rest the stick between your thumb and fore finger about 30cm from the tip. use your other hand to push the stick forward, whilst aiming at the ball. \n*put a bit of talc where the stick rests on your hand- it makes it easier*

I have taught hundreds of people how to curl and the most common response after playing is "that was lot more difficult than it looks".  Most leave with a greater appreciation and respect for the sport, some can't get enough and become life long members.\n\nThose who don't get, means there are less people to challenge you in reaching ones Olympic Dreams.  \n\n"if it is easy, why do it"

Curling is huge in Canada.  Have you ever done it? \n\nDo you know how much a rock (curling stone) weighs? \n\nIt is a lot of work, to get that rock to go to the other end of the ice...and sweeping on the ice assists it. \n\nThere are 4 people..the Skip, Vice, Second & Lead, and they all have crucial roles to play. \n\nYou need to have the right strength, and know the ice surface, and have the right turn to make the rock go the direction you like.  You need to be quick to make sure you keep up with the rock, and as you approach the house (the circle), you need to be very careful you don't burn (touch) any of the rocks.  \n\nIt is a sport. \nTrust me, it is a lot harder than it looks.  Unless you have played...you shouldn't judge.  If they have made it look easy, it is because they are good....and deserve to be there.
