	Curling - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Curling is a precision team sport similar to bowls or bocce, played on a rectangular sheet of prepared ice by two teams of four players each, using heavy polished granite stones which they slide down the ice towards a target area called the house.
		The curling arena is a sheet of ice 146 feet (45.5 m) in length by 14 feet 2 inches (4.318 m) to 15 feet 7 inches (4.75 m) in width, carefully prepared to be absolutely level so as to allow the rocks to glide with as little friction as possible.
		Curling shoes: The slider shoe (center), with its thin Teflon surface, is worn during delivery to slide on the ice; a slip-on gripper (left) is worn over the slider at other times; the other shoe (right) has a rough surface to give traction on the ice.

		The curling arena is a sheet of ice 146 feet (45.5 m) long by 14 feet 2 inches (4.32 m) wide, carefully prepared to be absolutely level and to allow the "rocks", as the polished granite stones are called, to glide with as little friction as possible.
		Curling shoes are specially designed: the slider shoe (center), with its thin teflon surface, is worn during delivery to slide on the ice; a slip-on gripper (left) is worn over the slider at other times; the other shoe (right) has a rough surface to give traction on the ice.
		Curling is the provincial sport of Saskatchewan, home of one of the most famous curlers, the late Sandra Schmirler who led her team to the first ever Gold Medal in the 1998 Winter Olympics.

	CURLING FACTS AND INFORMATION (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The curling action of rocks/stones changes during a game as the pebble evens out from wear.
		A special feature of the rock is that its bottom is not flat, but concave and the actual running surface of the rock is only ¼ to ½ inch (6 to 12 mm) wide on the rim of the concave bottom.
		Curling survives as a people's sport, making its Winter Olympic Games debut in 1998 with men's and women's tournaments (some sources also include the competition held in 1924 as an official Olympic tournament).
