sports in sweden

Hey its Isabella, today is going to be the best day ever. I get to go watch a curling match. Curling is a competition between 2 teams with 4 players. This game is always done on ice. The 2 teams take turns pushing the 42-pound stone toward big circle rings. For example like the picture at the top. The point of the game is to get the stones as close into the center as possible. The picture at the bottom is an example of the 42-pound stone that you have to push down the ice. I am really excited to see who wins.

  1. How long does the game last? The players must be strong to push the 42 pound of rock across the ice. Is there any contact?
