India is considered an emerging country in the sport of curling.[1] The country's men's team finished second in the B-Division of the 2022 Pan Continental Curling Championships. India's mixed doubles team also won silver at the 2022 Kazakhstan Curling Cup WCT Mixed Doubles World Curling Tour event.[2]
Due to the cold weather and presence of snow and ice, Gulmarg is the site of the annual National Curling Championships.[3]
