The
Spirit of Curling
Curling is a game of skill and traditions. A shot well
executed is a delight to see and so, too, it is a fine thing
to observe the time-honored tradition of curling being
applied in the true spirit of the game. Curlers play to win
but never to humble their opponents. A true curler would
prefer to lose rather than win unfairly.
A good curler never attempts to distract an opponent or
otherwise prevent him/her from playing his/her best.
No curler ever deliberately breaks a rule of the game or any
of its traditions. But, if he/she should do so inadvertently
and be aware of it, he/she is the first to divulge the
breach.
While the main object of curling is to determine the
relative skills of the players, the spirit of the game
demands good sportsmanship, kindly feeling, and honorable
conduct. This spirit should influence both the
interpretation and application of the rules of the game, and
also the conduct of all participants on and off the ice.
