Junior Development Program

Oceania Development Program

This junior development program fast-tracks Primary to Novice level skaters to Junior International level in a co-ordinated three year project between Australia, New Zealand and Singapore. The focus of the program is to strengthen the level of competition and raise the standard of skating within the region through training camps and providing educational opportunities. The Oceania Cup Series team event also provides additional competition experiences to further the development of these skaters.

 

Pairs and Dance Development Program

Pairs and Dance Development Project

Ice Skating Australia would like to hear from any skater who is interested in competing internationally for Australia in Ice Dancing or Pair Skating during the next four years. 

Skaters between the ages of 10-16 (Ladies) and 10 – 18 (Men) who believe they have the ability and the commitment to succeed in these figure skating disciplines are encouraged to submit an expression of interest. Forms are welcome from current Teams or Couples or individuals seeking an appropriate partner.

 

Development Camps

A range of development initiatives are being offered in 2010 as part of ISA’s Strategic Plan for High Performance and Junior Development.  These development Camps are a unique opportunity for skaters to ‘come and try’ a specific discipline and develop skills.  The camps also provide a forum for skaters and coaches to collaborate and share ideas. Please refer to ISA Communication #23 for further information.

 

Ice Dance Development Camp

A successful Ice Dance Camp was held on the 17 and 18 May, 2010 at the Liverpool Catholic Club Ice Rink, Sydney. 23 skaters attended and gained valuable knowledge and practical experience from Pavel Aubrecht, Maria and Evgueni Borounov, Danielle O’Brien and Gregory Merriman. Thanks to all who assisted to make this a successful camp. 

Synchronized Skating Development Camp

The Synchronized Skating Development camp was conducted by Shelley Barnett, Canadian Coach for Nexxice (2009 World Synchronized Skating Champions). This was a fantastic camp opportunity with a wide range of sessions designed specifically to assist with the development of Synchronized Skating. The three day camp was held at IceWorld Boondall, Brisbane from 16-18 August 2010.
