| Curling Etiquette: Let your Skip do the "skipping" unless he or she asks for your advice. Any member of the rink should feel free to discuss strategy with his or her skip before or after (not during) a game. It helps the Skip and Rink, if all members understand the team's strategy and in particular that their Skip's strategy may change during the game. |
