Join Us and Be a Part of one of the Fastest Growing Sports in the Country!

If you love skating, love being with your friends and want to have some fun performing with your friends, then you should give synchronized skating a try!

What is synchronized skating you ask? Synchronized Skating is a discipline of figure skating where 5–20 skaters skate together as one team. Synchronized Skating is the fastest growing discipline of competitive skating in the world. With many college level opportunities now presenting themselves and Olympic competition on the horizon, the discipline continues to grow rapidly in skill and participation.

Last season the Findlay Silver Blades FSC was proud to have 4 teams - The Silver Streaks - representing them at local and national competitions. The Silver Streaks synchronized skating team is the only synchronized skating team in Northwest Ohio and competes in Learn to Skate USA and US Figure Skating Competitions.

Additional Information

This is a long form text area designed for your content that you can fill up with as many words as your heart desires. You can write articles, long mission statements, company policies, executive profiles, company awards/distinctions, office locations, shareholder reports, whitepapers, media mentions and other pieces of content that don’t fit into a shorter, more succinct space.

Articles – Good topics for articles include anything related to your company – recent changes to operations, the latest company softball game – or the industry you’re in. General business trends (think national and even international) are great article fodder, too.

Mission statements – You can tell a lot about a company by its mission statement. Don’t have one? Now might be a good time to create one and post it here. A good mission statement tells you what drives a company to do what it does.

Company policies – Are there company policies that are particularly important to your business? Perhaps your unlimited paternity/maternity leave policy has endeared you to employees across the company. This is a good place to talk about that.

Executive profiles – A company is only as strong as its executive leadership. This is a good place to show off who’s occupying the corner offices. Write a nice bio about each executive that includes what they do, how long they’ve been at it, and what got them to where they are.

SYNCHRO TEAM FAQs

Can my skater participate in synchro if they have never done synchro before?

Absolutely. Skaters of all levels, ages and abilities are invited to try out. There is no prior experience needed to try out, just a willingness to learn, be coached and have fun. Furthermore, many skaters find that they love the team aspect of synchronized skating and we encourage skaters to continue training in freestyle, moves in the field and ice dancing outside of team practices!

What should my child be wearing to practices?

Female skaters should wear black leggings or tights with a skating dress/skirt, fitted top/jacket and have hair pulled neatly away from face in a bun (preferably). Male skaters should wear pants and a fitted shirt. We prefer black or dark clothing. No hooded shirts, jewelry, gloves or pants for females permitted. Water bottles encouraged. We are working on finding sponsors to assist us in purchasing team attire, so if you know of any sponsorship opportunities, please let us know.

Will my skater be dismissed from his/her team for missing a practice for a school/religious function

No. The strict attendance policy is referring to unexcused absences (for example, missing practice for a sleep over). When a skater is going to miss because of illness, or attendance at a school or religious function, the skater will need to fill out an absence form. Excessive absences will result in a meeting with Coaches and Synchro Directors. Please see your coach for more details.

How will this season look with all the current health issues?

We will be following all the Covid policies set forth by Learn to Skate USA, US Figure Skating, ISI, The Cube, The Hancock County Health Board and the Findlay Silver Blades FSC board. In addition, hand sanitizer will be used by all skaters prior to the start of practice

How are teams chosen?

The team requirements are listed below for each team. US Figure Skating and Learn to Skate USA have strict test and age requirements for each team level as do our coaches. While the team requirements are listed below for each team, please remind your skaters that this is a season for everyone to develop, learn and have fun. If they do not meet the requirements for a certain level, this will give them something to work towards for the next season while making new friends on the team that meets their needs for success now. We, as a coaching staff, rely heavily on positive attitudes, a willingness to learn and be coached as well as a commitment to your team and the ability of our skaters to work together.
