ambience:
music
ambience: general curling sounds, sweeping, shouts from team members
Curling was invented centuries ago. What started as an informal game has grown into an International Olympic sport with well-established rules. I'm Jim Metzner, and this is the Pulse of the Planet, presented by DuPont. Curlers slide smooth granite stones towards a bullseye on the ice trying to knock their opponents' stones out of the way and get as close to the center of the target as possible. Peter Murphy is with the Ardsley Curling Club in New York. "From what I know about curling, it began over 400 years ago on the ponds and lakes in Scotland. People would be sliding rocks around. When it came to the United States in about the 1860s, they had many different clubs and they curled on ponds and lakes all over the United States, where they froze in the wintertime. And it really wasn't until the 1920s, when refrigeration came in, that real clubs came along that were in buildings that had refrigeration, so that they could have their own sheets of ice." And although the curlers no longer play on frozen ponds, the granite stones are one aspect of the game that hasn't changed. For more than 240 years, they've used regulation stones weighing 42 pounds, and each one has come from Ailsa Craig Island, off the coast of Scotland. Curler Geoffrey Broadhurst explains.

Members of Grand National Curling Club United States Curling Association Click here for Norfolk Curling Club History The History of Curling The oldest artifacts from the ice sport of curling are stones which prehistoric people slid toward a target along frozen rivers or lakes. These people may also have used primitive brooms to clear snow from the path of their sliding stones. In 1565, Holland’s Peter Breugel painted "Hunters in the Snow" and another work depicting scenes resembling modern curling. Breugel’s paintings support the premise held by some that curling originated in continental Europe. The Scots, however, are the undisputed developers and formalizers of the modern game. By 1638 curling was considered, with golf and archery (in M. H. Adamson’s poem The Muses Threnodie), to be a usual recreational pastime. After a huge growth spurt in the 19th century, curling was played by thousands in nearly every Scottish parish. Between the 16th and 20th centuries, Scotland’s climate warmed, and today the lochs rarely freeze. The climate change hindered curlers, who played outdoors on natural ice until the 20th century. Nonetheless the Scots had, by the mid-1800s, formalized curling’s rules of play and equipment and had established the "mother club" of curlers worldwide, the Royal Caledonian Curling Club. The RCCC is today the national governing body of curling in Scotland, with 20,000 active members now playing indoors on refrigerated ice.

Curling - Schach auf Eis
Ist Curling ein echter Sport oder eher ein Spiel ? Die Diskussion darüber ist beinahe so alt wie die Sportart selbst, und das sind immerhin 500 Jahre. Und sie wird wahrscheinlich noch einige Jahre überdauern. So oder so: Um im Curling zu bestehen, braucht es technisches Geschick, taktisches Können und mentale Stärke. Curling war sicher während Jahrhunderten mehr Spiel und Zeitvertreib. Richtig sportlich wurde es erst ums Jahr 1940 herum, mit der Erfindung der Abgabetechnik "Sliding Delivery". Ein weiterer Markstein der Entwicklung Richtung Sport war das Jahr 1959. Nebst dem, dass damals erstmals offizielle internationale Meisterschaften ausgetragen wurde, war der Kanadier Richardson der erste, der mit seinem Team "Take outs" (Herausspielen der gegnerischen Steine) spielte; er gewann damit zwischen 1959 und 1963 viermal die Weltmeisterschaft. Die Schotten übernahmen diese Taktik und wurden 1967 der erste Weltmeister, der nicht aus Kanada oder der USA stammte.
Geschichte
Curling hat seinen Ursprung in Schottland wie Nachweise aus dem 16. Jahrhundert belegen. Kanadische Soldaten brachten dieses Spiel dann in ihre Heimat, wo Curling heute Nationalsport ist.

    Olympic Medalists: Curling
    History
    Curling was a demonstration sport at the first Winter Olympics, in 1924, and again in 1932. At the 1936 Winter Olympics in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the Germans demonstrated their own version, called "Ice Shooting," in which stones are thrown both for distance and at pre-determined targets. In 1988 and 1992, curling was again a demonstration sport, in preparation for its formal inclusion in the Winter Olympic program beginning in 1998. Top of page

    http://www.curling.org.nz/history.htm
    Auckland Curling History of NZ Curling Information and images from "History of New Zealand Curling" - by Christine Cameron Curling in New Zealand was established in 1873, when Scottish immigrant Thomas Callender, the "father of New Zealand curling", formed the Dunedin curling club. Curling quickly spread to Central Otago, and was a popular winter activity for the gold miners during the winter. By 1900, there were 9 clubs, and the game was taking hold. The growth in curling was held back by the First World War, and a bonspiel was held in 1922 after an eight year lull. With the game active again, participation was level in the 1920's, but experienced growth in the 1930s, including the first international match in 1934 as an Australian team toured New Zealand. The Second World War put the brakes on the growth of the sport, but the end of the war and return of servicemen fueled a growth period, the 1950s, when 10 new clubs were formed. Steady growth continued through the 1960s and 1970s. In 1973, a party of 21 curlers and wives travelled on a tour to Scotland - the first curling tour made by New Zealanders. This marked the first time Kiwi curlers had ever seen a hack, or played on fast indoor ice.

    A short history of the World Curling Federation
    It is recorded that international curling events were staged in the 19th century in Europe and North America, but it was not until the first Winter Olympic Games at Chamonix in 1924 that any form of competition was identified. Great Britain defeated Sweden and France in a three-country demonstration of the sport. In 1932 at Lake Placid, curling again was listed as a demonstration sport at the Winter Olympics, and Canada was a winner over the United States in a two-country competition in which each country entered four teams. Another 25 years passed before a meeting was held in Edinburgh in 1957 to consider the formation of an international organisation which would be required in order to apply for Olympic medal status. No progress was documented, but two years later, in 1959, Scotland and Canada reached a major milestone by launching the Scotch Cup series between their national men's curling champions. Interest in other countries was generated, and the USA (1961), Sweden (1962), Norway and Switzerland (1964), France (1966) and Germany (1967) expanded the Scotch Cup entry. The 1959-67 results now are recognised in the curling history of the men's world championship.
