Why Should I Try Curling? Discover One of Canada's Most Social Sports!
Curling is a fun way to stay active during the winter months; it combines friendly competition, strategy, and social connection in a way few sports can.
Whether you are joining with friends, looking to meet new people, or trying it for the first time, Burlington Golf and Country Club provides a welcoming environment for curlers of all ages and experience levels.
Many of our Members had never stepped onto the ice before joining. Today, they are part of a thriving curling community that enjoys leagues, social events, bonspiels, and time spent together both on and off the ice!
What Is Curling?
Curling is a team sport played on ice where players slide stones toward a target while teammates sweep the ice to influence the stone's path and speed. Often described as a combination of strategy, teamwork, and precision, curling is easy to learn but challenging to master making it enjoyable and accessible for players of all skill levels.
The sport is known for its strong traditions of sportsmanship and camaraderie, making it one of the most welcoming athletic communities you will find.

What Should I Wear?
Dress in warm, layered clothing that allows you to move comfortably while sweeping.
