What is Crokicurl you say?

You take crokinole and put it together with curling and you get crokicurl — a life-sized version of crokinole played on ice using smaller, lighter curling rocks (ours are made from cake bundt bowls ;-). The curling rocks are used because they are easier to use and have less distance to travel. Like the crokinole board, the play area of crokicurl has posts around the inner ring to make it a little more challenging.

It's actually not that hard to play, but you'll have to find a rink (or make your own):

• Each game requires either two teams of 2 or 4 players (if 4 players, each player gets one throw)
• Each team gets four rocks
• Each player takes a turn throwing a rock, starting clockwise and alternating teams and players
• Players are allowed to use their rocks to knock their opponent’s rocks out of play
• Each match will be best out of 3 games (unless we have too many teams to run that many games), if it's a tie, best of 5 and so on.

Scoring points

• Each ring is worth different points: 
  • the outer blue ring is worth 5 points
  • the white ring is worth 10 points
  • the red ring is worth 15 points 
  • the bullseye is worth 20 points
• If a player lands in the bullseye, the rock is removed and put aside and the team adds the 20 points to their final score
• If a rock is halfway between rings the team will get the points from the lower scoring ring
• If a rock is more than halfway outside of the outer ring it doesn’t count
• The team with the most points after throwing all four rocks wins!

What you need:

• A team of 2 or 4 players
• Chair or something to sit on (we only have a few extra)
• Dress for the weather on the day, regular snow boots no cleats
• A desire to have fun, and maybe win too!
