Curling Rocks!

How 'cool' is a sport where you can see someone in their teens playing right beside someone in their 70s? Not to mention there are actually benefits to losing! Whether you are attracted to the smooth delivery process, the crazy-looking sweeping, the incredible strategy, or the social interaction, you'll find it here with us in Charlotte, NC. If you are interested in joining us at the Pineville IceHouse for a LearnToCurl event or joining a league, send us a note on the contact page or at charlottecurling@gmail.com.
