The World Senior Curling Championships is an annual curling tournament featuring curlers from around the world who are at least 50 years old. Senior curling is quite similar to curling, with the exception of having only 8 ends played instead of 10.
The tournament began in 2002 with only 7 men's teams and 4 women's teams but has since expanded.

jolts of light; the son, the father,

That brings a softness to the flower of the awesome
open curling lotus gate I cup and kiss”
