You get one point for each of your team's stones that is closer to the button than your opponent's. There are 10 ends in each game of curling. The team with the most total points wins. Easy, right? Hardly. Despite its simple appearance, curling is a game of complex strategy and strict team member roles. The captain of a curling team is called the skip. The skip usually throws last, because the final stones of each end are the most decisive when it comes to points. Before the skip throws, he or she stands behind the house and directs the other team members' throws, whether to attempt a draw â landing the stone inside the house â or a hit, knocking an opponent's stone out of play.
The main job of your captain is to lead and motivate your other players on the pitch. He also has an important part to play off the pitch in acting as a role model to his teammates and providing a communicational link between you and your squad.
