The sport that involves sliding stones towards a target is called curling. In this game, players slide granite stones on a sheet of ice towards a circular target, known as the house. The objective is to accumulate the highest score by placing the stones closest to the center of the target. Curling requires strategy, teamwork, and precise delivery to outmaneuver opponents while managing the ice's condition. It’s often played in teams of four with each player taking turns to deliver the stones.
