Curling

 

Fl-Vl boys and girls. Practices take place on Tuesdays 3.30 – 5.30 (but not every week) during terms 1 and 2 at Kinross.  There are matches against other schools on occasional Thursdays and Sundays at other rinks.  Cost is £3 per practice/match. 


Further details from Mr Marchant (Computing)

 

Much of the fun of the game lies in the tactical play and it has often been referred to as “Chess on ice”.  Keen curlers have to develop a good sense of ‘touch’ and need a reasonable degree of fitness. Very clean shoes are the only essential kit.  The modern Academy Curling Club has existed since 1982 but records show that a club existed during the 1800’s, playing on local ponds so we have a long history!
