  • Road to Gold Training Camp “Returns”

    Road to Gold Training Camp “Returns”

    We have secured Tuesday, December 22, 2020, from 2 pm to 8 pm at San Diego Ice Arena (SDIA) for the rescheduled Road To Goad Training Camp. All COVID-19 safety procedures setup up by SDIA will be followed. Camp participants will be divided into smaller groups by skill levels. All scheduled events will take place at SDIA. ALL of the above is subject to further changes based upon city and county COVID restrictions in December.

    The Road to Gold Training Camp classes including: Skating Skills, Jump Drills, Spins, Combo Jumps, Turns & Clusters, Power Skating and Off Ice Classes. Updated Road to Gold flyer.

    There are a limited number of open spots still available for this camp. We are only allowing participates to sign up for the FULL CAMP ($195) as this will allow us to follow COVID restrictions more easily. Here is the link to the 2020 Road to Gold Camp on EntryEeze. The system is currently configured to receive “late” entries with no extra fee until December 15th.

    Availability and schedule of Private Lessons and Holiday Party with the Stars (aka Skating with the Stars Party) has not yet been finalized, but if you want to participate you may want to keep the morning of the same day free.

    Thank you for hanging in with us, hoping for this opportunity, for the Road to Gold Training Camp with Gracie Gold and Max Aaron. Questions can be sent to RoadToGold@SanDiegoFSC.org.

  • Congratulations to all Graduating Seniors

    Each year U.S. Figure Skating recognizes student-athletes who have worked hard to pursue figure skating while maintaining their academics. While figure skating is not a traditional school sport, it requires the same dedication, perseverance, and time management as any varsity sport. It is the goal of the Graduating Senior Award program of U.S. Figure Skating to help ensure these student-athletes are recognized for those skills.

    Graduating Senior Awardees, San Diego FSC:

    • Sydney Canty, Gold
    • Remy Reeb, Gold
    • Milan Canty, Gold
    • Lili Barton, Silver

    Congratulations on all the hard work during these trying times. Here is a message from Team USA athletes for the Class of 2020.

  • Coronavirus (COVID-19) Response – 4/17/2020 Update

    The SDFSC Board of Directors hopes each of our figure skating families is healthy and safe in these difficult times. Like everyone else, we are monitoring the directions provided by the state, county, and city officials and looking forward to the day when we can safely return to the ice.

    When we do return, things will come back slowly and differently. It will take time for skaters to return to where they were in skills and abilities. It will take time for coaches to get to all their students and have them ready for the next test and/or competition. Taking all of this into consideration, the board has decided to change/cancel additional upcoming events:

    • The May and June Test Sessions are canceled. Existing registrations moved to July.
    • The SDFSC Annual Meeting will be held through an online video conference. Elections and voting will be completed electronically, details by the end of May.
    • The 2020 Skate La Grande competition is canceled. We won’t want to gather in crowds, nor will people have had enough ice time to be ready.
    • 2020-2021 Membership renewal will be proceeding in June to ensure we are prepared when the rinks open again.

    Updates to previously announced changes:

    • The Road to Gold training camp was postponed.  Exploring dates in late August and December.  New date TBD.
    • Synchronized Skating Tryout was postponed.  New date TBD.
    • The April Test Session was canceled. Next test session now July.

    U.S. Figure Skating updates:

    • Many events postponed or canceled through the end of June.
    • The Governing Council has been postponed until May 15-16, 2020, and will be conducted as virtual meetings with electronic voting. Besides the usual long list of potential rules changes, there will undoubtedly be discussions and guidance for the resumption of future events.

  • Coronavirus (COVID-19) Response

    UPDATE: 03/24/2020 – U.S. Figure Skating has further canceled events until May 11, 2020. SDFSC will continue to monitor and change scheduled events as necessary.


    As of this morning, U.S. Figure Skating strongly recommends that all club events and programs (competitions, test sessions, shows, etc.) are canceled or postponed through at least April 12.  The San Diego FSC believes this is a prudent precaution to help our country control the spread of the COVID-19. As a result:

    • The Road to Gold training camp is postponed.
    • Synchronized Skating Tryout is postponed.
    • The April Test Session is canceled, and all entries will be moved to the May Test Session.

    You can either choose to keep your reserved spot or request a full refund. Email the appropriate chair if you want to receive a refund. Road to Gold is roadtogold@sandiegofsc.org, for Test Session email testing@sandiegofsc.org.

    We hope that all of our figure skating family remains safe.

    Sincerely,
    SDFSC Board of Directors
