05 November 2012 [16:36] - Today.Az
The Armenian sports world was shattered today by the devastating news that the World Curling Federation (WCF) has expelled Armenia for its failure to pay membership fees for a “durable” period of time, the Armenian media reports.
According to Armsport.am, WCF swept out Armenia. Curling is a sport in which players slide “stones” resembling tea
kettles across a sheet of ice towards a target area which is segmented
into four rings, while teammates sweep the area in front. Curling has
been an official winter Olympic sport since 1998. Armenia, which has
never fielded a curling team, will now, alas, be struck from the roll
call of the remaining 48 curling nations.
