of our skaters yearn for competitive opportunities that provide
the experience of earning a chance to move to a higher tier of
competition. These experiences fuel excitement and motivate
skaters to train harder, set competitive goals and challenge
themselves to excel.
The Excel Series and National Festival will reignite the
fire for many young athletes, opening an exciting competitive
avenue that inspires them to work hard and focus on achieving
challenging, yet attainable personal goals each season.
How can your rink become involved?
• Work with your local U.S. Figure Skating club to have Excel
events included in your rink's competition and/or apply to
host a Series competition.
• Skating directors are encouraged to design advanced bridge
programming to transition skaters from basic skating into
Excel. We encourage directors also to hold seminars to
educate the parents and coaches at your rink about the
opportunities of the Excel Program and Series.
• Learn more about the Excel Program on the U.S. Figure
Skating website under the Programs tab.
