Louisville's climate is a bit more suited to the summer games — just look at how may Olympic athletes we sent to Paris back in 2024. But that doesn't mean Louisvillians can't get in on the Winter Olympics fun. Here are some ways you can get in on the Olympic fun right here in town.

Derby City Curlng Club
This organization operates out of the Alpine Ice Arena on Gardiner Lane. It offers Learn to Curl classes, plus members-only open curling nights once you learn your sliders from your grippers. Classes frequently sell out, so sign up well in advance.

Louisville Adult Hockey Players Association
The governing body for all Louisville-area adult leagues, the LAHPA helps coordinate games across all skill levels through USA Hockey. Leagues are ranked from 1 (true beginner, cannot skate) to 9 (has played on a professional level). Just sign up online and find a league that's right for you.
