Fall Learn to Curl – October 6

Sun, 10/06/2024 6:45 pm -8:45 pm
$35

Curling is one of the fastest growing Olympic sports in the country, and now is your chance to try this fun, competitive, friendly, social game. Cost is $35 per person for a session, which includes approximately 30 minutes of classroom time and 90 minutes of on-ice instruction. Aim to arrive at 6:45pm for the intro and safety briefing.

While all ages are welcome, curling stones weigh about 44 pounds and require a certain amount of weight and force to be successfully propelled down the ice. Therefore, we recommend that participants are 12 years or older. Modifications and delivery aids are available for participants with limited mobility.

If you're ready to dive head-first into curling, we're excited to offer a bundle of this Learn To Curl and four Sundays of an instructional series for the early-bird price of just $120 total! For more details on the instructional series, check out its registration page. Just select "Yes" for this option under the Add-Ons section when registering. You can also register separately for the Instructional Series, space permitting, at a later date. This early bird offer expires September 22.

Space is limited, so register now to reserve your spot! Don't forget to read our cancellation policy.

New Curler Instructional Series

Sun, 10/13/2024 7:00 pm - Sun, 11/03/2024 9:00 pm
$140 per person

Whether you're a brand new curler just coming off a Learn To Curl event, or someone who's curled a league or two and is looking for a more structured way to learn the game, the Boise Curling Club is excited to host a four-week instructional series to help you hone your skills!

The goal of the instructional series is to equip participants with all the fundamentals of the game. Graduates will be able to confidently participate in future leagues, bonspiels or any other curling event, and know how to self-improve going forward as they gain experience in the game.

Each session will include off-ice instruction covering everything from rules, to game strategy, to delivery technique, followed by a longer on-ice portion consisting of drills and practice to apply and deepen the understanding of the techniques taught in the classroom. Both off- and on-ice portions will be taught by experienced curlers who love the game, and can provide useful feedback on the ice. Among the topics covered will be:

  • In-depth explanation and practice of the flat-footed curling delivery
  • The ABCs of curling (alignment, balance, curl)
  • Full coverage of all rules of curling, including the free guard zone, what to do if you burn a rock, and how to self-officiate a game
  • Effective sweeping, including open and closed sweeping form
  • Delivery and shooting drills
  • Roles and responsibilities of each position on a four-person team
  • How to communicate as a team during play, including the Ferby system to indicate shot weight
  • Strategy lessons, including how to play with hammer, without hammer, and how to decide on a goal for a curling end
  • Strategy sessions on the ice, with instructor-led discussion on shot selections
  • Takeout weights and how to choose the appropriate call for a desired outcome
  • Takeout drills
  • Curling etiquette during leagues and bonspiels

The instructional series will take place on four successive Sundays: October 13, October 20, October 27 and November 3, from 7pm to 9pm. The cost is $140 per person. Space will be limited, so sign up soon! Please reach out to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. with any questions about the format. We look forward to seeing you on the ice! Don't forget to read our cancellation policy.
