In this final Curling Legends Podcast episode segment, the World Curling president offers some frank hints of the Roaring Game’s future.
“There’s been lots of talk (that) we need to have video replay,” Welling says… “can our umpires step in and make some kind of determination? Right now we don’t have that.”
“To me (the spirit of curling) is one of the things that makes the sport super-special. And we need to not lose that. But I think we have to have some systems and mechanisms to deal with, if that system that we love breaks down and isn’t working.”
