Skater Assessments & Evaluations
Skaters in our Learn to Skate, Intro to Figure Skating, and Figure Skating classes are evaluated throughout the year using our badge program. This program covers a comprehensive series of skills, from introductory skating to advanced figure skating. Skaters progress at their own pace, and badges are used to track their achievements and determine their placement for future sessions.
You can view your skater's evaluations and badges by logging into your account. Click on "Participants," then select "Evaluations" or "Achievements." Skaters receive their assessments twice per year, once in December and again in March.
If you have any questions about your skater's progress, please contact their coach.
Learn to Skate
Our Learn to Skate program covers levels 1 through 3 of our badge program.
These levels teach introductory skating skills for figure skating, hockey, or any other ice sport.
Skaters who complete these levels, can move on to the Intro to Figure Skating class, our Power Skating program, or into a Hockey, Ringette, Speed Skating, or other prorgam.
Intro to Figure Skating
Our Intro to Figure Skating program covers levels 4 through 7 of our badge program.
These levels reinforce good skating habits such as strong balance and control, and introduce figure skating skills such as introductory jumps and spins.
Skaters who complete these levels can move on to the Figure Skating class, or into another program such as competitive skating or synchronized skating.
Figure Skating
Our Figure Skating program progresses through a new set of badge levels, designed specifically to focus on figure skating skills including more challenging jumps, spins, and field movements.
These more challenging levels take longer to complete so skaters generally spend the entirity of their time at CCA in this class. Some skaters may choose to move on from these levels to or combine their learning with a competitive skating program or synchronized skating class.
Power Skating
Our Power Skating program is designed for hockey and ringette players who have mastered basic skating skills (Level 3 and above) and are looking to improve their speed, agility, and explosive power. Evaluations focus on edge control, stride efficiency, and transitions.
Upon successful completion of the Power Skating requirements, skaters will be better prepared for competitive gameplay and advanced team tryouts.
Power Skating
The Power Skating program is evaluated on it's own list of badge levels, specifically designed for a Power program. These levels focus on edge work, control, and efficiency.
