2018-19 Canadian National Qualifying Competitions

SYWTW FS

Throughout the month of November, Canadian skaters will compete at sectional championships across the country in order to qualify for the National Championships in January 2019. This post will explain the Skate Canada qualifying structure and provide a list of links and information that will be updated as the season progresses.

Reference: Skate Canada

See also: 2018-19 National Figure Skating Competitions

QUALIFYING STRUCTURE

Skaters qualify for the Canadian National Championships by competing at one of eight sectional championships. Sectional championships have five levels of skating in each discipline: juvenile, pre-novice, novice, junior, and senior. Top finishers at sectionals in pre-novice, novice, senior, and junior then advance to the Skate Canada Challenge, the last qualifying competition before Nationals. Top finishers in novice, junior, and senior at Skate Canada Challenge advance to the National Championships. The maximum number of skaters who can compete at Nationals is 18 men, 18 women, 12 pairs, and 15 dance teams at each level.

Skaters can be granted immediate qualification to Nationals by medaling at the senior level in the previous season, or be exempted from qualifying competitions due to an international assignment taking place around the same time.

COMPETITIONS

Sectional championships and the Skate Canada Challenge are livestreamed by Skate Canada on Dailymotion. Keep an eye on our blog for information on watching the National Championships.

2018-19 Russian National Qualifying Competitions

SYWTW FS

Over the course of fall, Russian skaters will compete on the Russian Cup Series to qualify to the National Championships in December 2018. This post will explain the Russian Skating Union qualifying structure and provide a list of links and information that will be updated throughout the season.

Reference: Russian Figure Skating Federation

See also: 2018-19 National Figure Skating Competitions

QUALIFYING STRUCTURE

Russia holds three separate National Championships at the senior, junior, and novice levels. Junior and senior skaters qualify for the Russian National Championships by competing at two of five events in the Russian Cup Series. As in the ISU Grand Prix series, points are allotted to final placements at each competition. Qualifiers are determined by the total number of points earned from two competitions up until the maximum number of competitors per each discipline is filled. In the case of a tie, the tie is broken by combined total scores over the two competitions.

Skaters are granted immediate qualification to Senior Nationals if they have an assignment on the ISU Grand Prix or qualify to the ISU Junior Grand Prix Final. Skaters are immediately qualified for Junior Nationals if they have a ISU Junior Grand Prix assignment. Skaters who have already qualified for Nationals can still compete at Russian Cup events if they want to, but their placement will not affect their advancement to Nationals.

The maximum number of skaters who can compete at the Senior and Junior National Championships is 18 men, 18 women, 12 pairs, and 15 dance teams. Skaters must be at least 14 years old to compete at the Senior National Championships.

Novice skaters compete in their own national championships in two age groups, junior novice (born 2008 or later) and senior novice (born in 2006-2007).  Novice skaters qualify via regional (“zonal”) competitions or city championships depending on their location, with various quotas of skaters advancing from each. Novice Russian competitions are composed of 3 segments instead of 2: elements, short program and free skate. The elements portion of the competition requires one solo jump, one jump in combination, a combination spin and a step sequence. Each skater is allowed 2 attempts at the jumping passes.
