Test Session News

Register for SCNV’s Adult Singles/Pairs Critique Today!

The club is offering a special critique session Sunday morning, Feb. 25, at Fairfax Ice Arena to support our amazing adult skaters. This event is free and open only to SCNV members 18+.

Each skater will have the opportunity to skate his/her program and be critiqued by one of our U.S. Figure Skating judges as well as one of our USFS technical panel officials, if appropriate. It is our hope that this will provide our adult skaters valuable feedback about their programs before sectionals.

To register, search test sessions on EntryEeze for the adult critique. Any questions? Email Jenn at testchair@scnv.org.
