Curling is a lifetime sport that can be enjoyed by people of any ability. At the Abbotsford Curling Club, we offer different options for learning to curl.
Learn to Curl in a fun, welcoming environment – no experience needed! Our friendly, knowledgable instructors help you learn the game, build confidence and develop your skills in a relaxed and fun environment.
For all programs, all equipment is provided. This includes grippers, sliders, delivery aides, and broom or sticks for delivery of the rock. We insist on clean running shoes that you carry in to the rink, and recommend wearing stretchy multiple layers of shirts and jackets. If you want to bring gloves, try to choose some that will give you grip on the broom for sweeping.
