Cockburn Ice Arena - Synchronised Skating

Our development squad is the first step to becoming a Synchronised skater. Currently the program is run by Cockburn Ice Arena as an extension of our Learn to Skate Program. All skaters who want to join must first sign up for the Development Squad, which run in in a block of 8 weekly lessons during the school term. Each skater will progress through a number of Synchro levels that will teach them the basics they need before entering a competitive team. Badges are accumulated upon completion of each level.

Sunday

12:45pm - 1:30pm
commencing 03/05/09

Skaters may need to enrol for a few terms of this course to fully complete all the Synchro levels. Call Calandra at Cockburn Ice Arena on 9434 4066.

| About | Junior teams existed in WA from 1989 to 2001 missing only a few years in between. Infusion was formed to further develop synchronized skating in WA and to provide somewhere for Novice skaters to go once they become to old to skate with Jitterbugs. Junior Teams are now eligible to compete internationally if they are up to standard. This is a goal all skaters must aim towards for the years to come. WA‘s past Junior teams have won gold, silver and bronze at various National Championships prior to 2000. The team currently has 16 skaters, but we are aiming for 18-20.
| Prerequisites | Junior Synchro is open to all skaters aged 14+ but they must be working towards Elementary 1 or 2. All skaters must have completed the Learn to Skate program, and must have passed their Preliminary Test and Elementary 1 Pattern before being eligible to compete at State or National Level. Junior is required to perform two programs, a Short Program based on required formations and elements, and a Free Program based more on presentation and creativity.
| Coaches | Infusion is coached by Simon Waller.
