Curling is a strange, but exciting sport

5
played on ice. Many people say it comes from
Scotland. Today, it’s popular around the world
and it’s also an Olympic sport.
In a curling match there are always two teams
and usually four players in each team, but
sometimes there are only two. A player in each
team throws a stone on the ice. The stone
is called the ‘rock’ and it’s heavy. The other
players try to send the ‘rock’ on the ‘house’, the
circle on the ice. They win many points when it
stops on the small circle.
The players use sticks on the ice called ‘brooms’
to move the ‘rock’. They wear special shoes,
not skates. It isn’t an easy sport. Both men and
women play it. Canada, Sweden and China
have got very good curling teams.

Hi, Aunt Sue!
Canada is beautiful! It’s very cold here, but I like it. I go
skiing every day with mum and sometimes I snowboard, too.
Mum doesn’t like snowboarding. Don’t worry! We always
wear a helmet, boots and ski goggles. I’m sitting in my hotel
room now. I’m watching a rugby match on TV. England is
playing France! Great game!
See you soon!
