Skating Clubs
Why join a figure skating club?
Joining a U.S. Figure Skating-affiliated club enables skaters to participate in all U.S. Figure Skating activities and also includes a subscription to SKATING magazine. It also offers benefits unique to each club, which can be found on our Membership page.
When should you/Your Skater join a figure skating club?
You may notice a display or bulletin board at your skating rink with information on joining the skating club affiliated with your ice rink, and you may wonder when you/your skater should join that skating club. Once your child is ready to take official U.S. Figure Skating tests or compete in competitions beyond the Learn to Skate USA levels, it is time to join a figure skating club. In other words, in order to take tests and enter competitions beyond Learn to Skate USA, a skater must be a FULL member of U.S. Figure Skating.
What activities will a skating club provide?
Some skating clubs will have monthly or weekly club sessions. These sessions may just be practice sessions, or may include seminars on different skating disciplines. These sessions may be work or fun sessions. Fun sessions could include food and skating exhibitions or even on-ice games. Some skating clubs will sanction ice shows, competitions or judging critiques. All clubs will usually sponsor test sessions. Some clubs will provide opportunities for adults to become figure skating judges.
How Can I sign up for Test sessions?
Some skating clubs will just sponsor monthly or bi-monthly test sessions and not offer any other activities. In order for you/your skater to take skating tests, they must be a FULL member of U.S. Figure Skating. If you/your skater takes a test at a club of which you/they are a member, you will be given a discount on testing fees. Learn more about testing at CVFSC on our Testing page.
Can you be a member of more than one skating club?
Skaters must first be a “home club member” of a certain skating club. That is the skating club you/your skater will represent in competitions. However, you/your skater may also join additional skating clubs as an associate member. Associate memberships can be useful if your child needs to take tests, skate on ice time rented by a sponsoring club or participate in a certain club’s ice shows or exhibitions.
