Breaking News: The 2012  South Florida “Series”Competition package is now out with four exciting competions scheduled at Pines Ice Arena, Glacier Ice and Snow Arena, Kendall Ice Arena and Palm Beach Ice Works. Go to the Competition Packgage page for complete information and competition dates.

This is where future champions get their start on the road to the Olympics! Did you know that several skaters who started out in our USFS South Florida Series have made it all the way to the U.S. Junior Nationals and also the I.S.U. International Junior Grand Prix? Whether you are a recreational skater or glory bound this is the place to get started. There is something for everyone from Snowplow Sam (Tots) to Adults.  We also have both the Test Track and Well Balanced Tracks for the Pre Preliminary and Preliminary Levels.

The 2012 competition package will include additional events and chances to earn points towards the final placement trophies! The new fun events include: Artistic/Showcase, Interpretive, Jumps and Spins! Ask your coach or program director about how you can participate.

The USFS South Florida Basic Skills Series is fun for everybody no matter your age or skill level.  Skaters will be grouped according to age and ability level.  Any skater who is a registered member with a USFS Basic Skills Program or a full member of USFS may compete.

We look forward to seeing old friends again next season and making new ones as well!

Important Notice for All Coaches
Coaches will need to check in at each Series competition registration desk and show a government issued photo I.D. to receive a credential. The local organizing committee (LOC) will have a list of coaches who are cleared for a credential at the competition.  For coaches who are NOT on the list, the LOC will ask to see proof of membership in both U.S. Figure Skating and the PSA, a Coaches Registration card, proof of Category A or B compliance in CER, and a photo ID at check in. If a coach cannot provide a photo I.D. and is not on the list or cannot produce the necessary documents, he or she will not be allowed a credential – no exceptions.

We strongly urge all coaches to have their cards with them.
