THE OLYMPIC SPORT OF CURLING Submitted by Lisa Schoeneberg Curling history dates back to the 16th century, when Scottish farmers passed time during long, gray winters by sliding large granite stones, retrieved from nearby channels at low tide, across frozen lochs. Curling appeared as a demonstration sport in four Olympic Winter Games: 1924 in Chamonix, France, Lake Placid in 1932, 1988 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and 1992 in Albertville, France. Curling made its Olympic medal debut at the 1998 Games in Nagano, Japan. 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.
The Free Guard Zone is the space between the hogline and the tee line, excluding the house (see diagram, next page). No stone lying in this zone may be removed from play by the opposition until the first 4 stones in any end have come to rest. Any opponents stone(s) removed from the Free Guard Zone prior to the first 4 stones being played, the opposing team will place their stone back in it’s original position and play continues.

Curling was invented centuries ago. What started as an informal game has grown into an International Olympic sport with well-established rules. I'm Jim Metzner, and this is the Pulse of the Planet, presented by DuPont. Curlers slide smooth granite stones towards a bullseye on the ice trying to knock their opponents' stones out of the way and get as close to the center of the target as possible. Peter Murphy is with the Ardsley Curling Club in New York. "From what I know about curling, it began over 400 years ago on the ponds and lakes in Scotland. People would be sliding rocks around. When it came to the United States in about the 1860s, they had many different clubs and they curled on ponds and lakes all over the United States, where they froze in the wintertime. And it really wasn't until the 1920s, when refrigeration came in, that real clubs came along that were in buildings that had refrigeration, so that they could have their own sheets of ice." And although the curlers no longer play on frozen ponds, the granite stones are one aspect of the game that hasn't changed. For more than 240 years, they've used regulation stones weighing 42 pounds, and each one has come from Ailsa Craig Island, off the coast of Scotland. Curler Geoffrey Broadhurst explains.
