Led by coaches Stephanie Troyer and Michelle Dilling, these Center Ice Skating Club skaters are all The Top Excel Series Skaters that Qualified from the Midwestern Section of the United States and will compete against all of the National Qualifiers from the Pacific and Eastern Region.
Many of these featured skaters got their start at the Center Ice Sports Complex in North Canton through the Learn to Skate USA program. After working through the basic program, many skaters learn that this is the sport that they love and want to continue. Center Ice Skating Club was founded to encourage the instruction, practice, and advancement of the members in any or all of the disciplines of figure skating; to encourage and cultivate a spirit of fraternal feelings among ice skaters, and to carry out the general policies and objectives of the United States Figure Skating Association.
The club is also able to offer guaranteed ice time that allows the skaters time to practice and be coached in a safe environment. In addition to the discipline and hard work, the club encourages and fosters the friendships of these skaters through social activities and most of all the club member’s favorite, winter, and spring shows. At the end of the club season, the skater’s accomplishments are celebrated at their end-of-the-year banquet. For more information, visit www.centericeskatingclub.com.
