A curling team or rink consists or four players, men or women: the skip, the third or vice-skip, the second and the lead. The skip is the main strategist: he "reads" the ice and calls the shots (with or without curl) from the other three curlers by indicating the target with his broom or brush; he throws the team's last two shots in each end. The third helps the skip with the strategy and holds the brush or broom for him as a target; he throws the third pair of rocks per end and sweeps. The second throws the second pair of rocks per end and sweeps. The lead throws the team's first two shots in each end and sweeps. 5, record 7, English, - third

Le troisième aide le capitaine à élaborer la stratégie de jeu et le remplace lorsqu'il revient à ce dernier de lancer; il lance la troisième paire de pierres de son équipe et balaie.
