Try your hand at indoor curling
Published on 21 October 2025 01:21 PM
Have you ever fancied trying curling but don’t want to travel to an ice rink or prefer a warmer, more accessible environment? Age UK Shropshire Telford & Wrekin may have just the thing for you!
We’re inviting anyone aged 50 and over to come along to our indoor curling group, held every other Monday from 10.30am to 12.00pm at Horsehay Village Hall.
Indoor curling is a fun, sociable activity where players slide specially designed rubber stones across a smooth floor; no ice, no skates, and no previous experience needed. The aim is still the same as traditional curling: get your stones as close to the target as possible and out-strategize your opponents.
It’s a relaxed and friendly group, ideal for anyone looking to try something new, stay active, and meet others in a welcoming environment. The game is also very inclusive; it’s a great activity for people of all abilities, including those with limited mobility.
Sessions cost just £3.00, and that includes a cuppa and a chat afterwards.
Come along, give it a go, and see what curling is all about, without needing to brave the cold!
