New curling center in Blue Springs is now open
CONTAGIOUS. NOW THAT THEEW N FACILITIES OPEN IN BLUE SPRINGS THE CURLING CLUB EXPECTS MORE AND MORE PEOPLE TO MECO OUT AND TRY IT OUR HOPE IS THAT WE SEE CURLING GROW INHE T KANSAS CITY AREA EXPONENTIALLY RIGHT NOW. THERE ARE 100 MEMBERS ALL AGES FROM 9 TO 74. WE HAVE WHEELCHAIR CURLERS. WE HAVE CURLERS THAT HAVE BAD KNEES AND BAD BACK SO THEY CAN’T BEND DOWN SO THEY DELIVER THE STONE DIFFERENTLY. THE REAL APPEAL IS THE STRATEGY LOOKGIN MAYBE TWO OR THREE STONES AHEAD AND SEEING WHAT THEY’RE THINKING AND WE DO TO COMPENSATE SO IT’S A THINKING PERSON’S GAME AS WELL AS A SKILL GAME. THERE’S THE STRATEGY THAT YOU WOULD FIND LIKE INVOLVED IN A GOOD CHESS MATCH. THERE’S READING THE ICE THAT WOULD BE SIMILAR TO READING THE GRNEE IN GOLF EACH TEAM IS TRYING TO GET THEIR STONE INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE CIRCLE AT THE OPPOSITE END. SO DEPENDING ON WHEN YOU SWEEP, IT’LL CHANGE THE CHANGE OF THE ARANDC REALLY GOOD PLAYERS AT THE OLYMPICS. THEY CAN REALLY MANAGE WHERE THAT STONE’S GONNA LAND NOW. ACTUALLY, THAT WAS A PRETTY GOOD SHOT. BECAUSE I LTEF IT OUT FRONT SO THAT I CAN TAP IT IN THE HOUSE NEXT TIME POSSIBLY GET A POINT. THE STRATEGY IS THE SAME IN WHEELCHAIR CURLING WHEN I PUSH IT D OWN THERE. I HAVE TO KNOW HOW FAR IT’S GONNA SLIDE. AND VISUALIZE WHERE IT’S GONNA SLOW DOWN WHERE IT’’ GONNA STOP AND CURVE ALL IN ALL IT’S A GAME THAT HAS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE. I SAY IT’S EASY TO LEARN. IT’S VERY HARD TO.
