Now I didn't say I was very good...
There are special shoes to wear, they have a special tracktion on them. Honestly, there was so much to learn I didn't understand every aspect, except when to sweep or when not to sweep. It was fun to play...but it was a lot of hard work, your right about that part. All of the winter sports are challenging, in there own way.
If you ever get the chance to play I would totally go for it
