SPOT
Dougin Curling Stadium
Overview
Opened in September 2012 adjacent to Tsukisamu Gymnasium, this is the first public facility in Japan dedicated to year-round curling. There are five curling sheets (competition lanes) kept at a room temperature of 5°C, and the facility is fully equipped to host international competitions. Classes are offered (for a fee) for all levels, from curling enthusiasts to beginners. A set of curling equipment (shoes, sliders, and brushes) can be rented for 100 yen, so even tourists should be able to give it a try. For details, see the website of the Sapporo Health Sports Foundation. Reservations required.
