OPENING NUMBER REQUIREMENTS

 

1.     Skater must be Westland Figure Skating Club member. (General $10 Ice Show Member or USFSA: Westland Figure Skating Club member at or before tryouts).

2.     You must be registered and skate for a minimum of 1 (ONE) hour of Freestyle per week for at least 2 (TWO) of the three skating sessions at Westland.  Hours skated on a team do not count.

3.     BY THE DAY OF TRYOUTS - You must have passed ISI Freestyle 4   and/or must be competing USFSA pre-preliminary or higher.

4.     If you make opening number it will count as one of your ice show numbers.  This means if you register for one number in the show and make opening number then opening number will be the only number you will be in for the show.  If you want to skate opening plus one additional group number then you will need to register for two numbers.

5.     Trying out does not guarantee that you will make opening number

6.     Parents will not be allowed to watch tryouts.

7.     You must exercise good sportsmanship.

8.     Any skater who is placed in an opening number is expected to cooperate and get along with the other skaters.

9.  If a skater does not meet these requirements or fails to continue to meet these requirements, they can be removed from opening number.

 

10.  NOTE:  There is a possibility that opening number(s) will cost more then a regular group number.  Opening numbers typically have more skaters in them and are longer in length then normal group numbers, which may require more practice time then normal groups.  This fee will not exceed $20 and we will try all efforts to avoid additional costs.
