Curling began in the 16th Century and was played on frozen Scottish lochs. EUCC was founded in 1973. We welcome all abilities, from complete beginners to curlers with years of experience. Curling is also a wheelchair, and disability-friendly sport. It is a sport played on ice, between two teams of 4. The goal is to throw lumps of granite called stones towards a target called the house. The winner is the team who has their stones closer to the centre of the house at the end of each round, called an end. Watch this short video explaining the game:
