English

Subject field(s)
  • Curling
DEF

To deliver rocks that tend to travel between the skip's broom and the centre line.

OBS

The term "inside" refers to the part of a playing area midway between the sides; it thus means, for a curling sheet, an area getting close to the centre line.

OBS

A "narrow rock" is delivered between the skip's broom and the house or the centre line, the inside of the playing area; a "wide rock" is delivered between the skip's broom and a side line, the outside of the playing area.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Curling
DEF

Lancer des pierres qui tendent à se diriger entre le balai ou la brosse du capitaine et la ligne médiane.

OBS

Le terme «intérieur» signifie la partie d'une aire de jeu à mi-chemin entre les côtés; pour une piste de curling, il signifie donc tout espace se rapprochant de la ligne médiane.

OBS

Une «pierre étroite» s'immobilise entre le balai du capitaine et la maison ou la ligne médiane, l'intérieur de l'aire de jeu; une «pierre large» s'immobilise entre le balai du capitaine et un côté de la piste, l'extérieur de l'aire de jeu.
