Curling originated in Scotland in the early 16th century.  The oldest stone on record has a date of 1511 inscribed on it.  Please take a few minutes to check out the videos below.  The first was produced in 1966 for the United States Men's Curling Association and found again just last summer.  The second is a video highlighting the best curling shots in 2019.

2019 Canada Curling Best Shots

Curling games begin and end with a handshake and greetings of "Good Curling" between each of the competitors.
In most sports the rules are enforced by referees or umpires, who impose penalties and legislate fair play. Breaking a rule often doesn't matter unless the officials see it, and good sportsmanship doesn't seem very important to many of the athletes.  The sport of curling is completely different. Except for certain national events, we don't have referees or umpires. The curling rules are enforced by the competitors themselves, and breaking a rule is a big deal even if no one else sees it.
