Welcome to OCCurling.com
The official website for the Orange County Curling Club – The first, and only, Curling Club in Orange County. Started in January of 2010, we are a fun, and friendly club that welcomes players of all skill levels. With the support of Westminster ICE, we hope to keep the sport thriving for years to come in the greater Orange County area.
Curling is a team sport for all ages and abilities. The object of the game is for two teams of four players to slide 42 lb granite rocks down a sheet of ice toward the "House". A unique aspect of the sport is the concept of sweeping. Players vigorously sweep or brush the ice in front of the rock to keep it moving. The friction caused by sweeping, polishes and briefly heats the surface of the ice, which makes the rocks travel farther and straighter.
LEARN TO CURL CLASSES
The OC Curling Club at Westminster ICE offers Learn to Curl classes for those who are just learning to play or refreshing their skills. Learn to Curl classes include an instructional video, proper sweeping techniques, stone throwing, game etiquette, coaching on and off the ice, the anatomy of a curling shot and more!
