Play curling in Esbjerg — and find your people

Esbjerg Curling Klub has its own curling hall on Gl. Vardevej, and a club small enough to learn your name on the first evening. Your first session is free, and you book it in English.

One club plays curling in Esbjerg, with 29 upcoming trial sessions: Esbjerg Curling Klub.

More than a training session

Esbjerg Curling Klub plays in the curling hall at Gl. Vardevej 82, and it is a club with something for everyone: weekly training, junior curling, wheelchair curling and the annual Esbjerg Open. Four players to a sheet of ice and a scoreboard nobody takes too seriously until the last end — it is a sport built around the team.

There are fewer clubs in Esbjerg than in Copenhagen, so the club that matches your sport has time for you. Danish clubs are foreninger — run by their members, not by a company — and these are the clubs where the chair of the board is often the person who welcomes you at the door.

Ice time is booked in advance, so say you are coming and the club will have a place ready for you on the ice. Book your free session, come along once and ask your questions on the night.

Training times and free trial sessions

The first session is always free, and you do not need to speak Danish or have played before.

Good to know

Do I need to speak Danish?

No. You book in English, and your confirmation email is in English too. Training itself may be in Danish — just ask, and people usually switch.

Is the first session really free?

Yes. A trial session booked here costs nothing. You are not signing up for a membership by booking one, and nobody asks for card details.

What should I bring?

Warm layers you can bend and stretch in, and clean indoor trainers — the ice is unforgiving about outdoor soles. The club provides the stones and, usually, the sliders.

What happens after I book?

You get a confirmation email, and the club is told that you are coming. If you need to change the date or cancel, the email has a link for both.

Can I bring someone with me?

Yes. You can add one guest when you book, and they get their own invitation by email.

How does membership work in a Danish club?

Danish clubs are foreninger — member-run associations, not commercial gyms. After the free trial you join by paying a kontingent, usually once or twice a year, and that is what covers training and coaching for the season.

When can I start?

Curling is an ice sport, so the season follows the rink: roughly autumn to spring. It is a good answer to a Danish January.

Which areas does this page cover?

Esbjerg has a large international community built around the harbour and the energy sector, and its clubs are used to it. The selection is smaller than in Copenhagen, but the welcome tends to be more personal.
