CONGRATULATIONS to each and every Juvenile, Intermediate, Novice, Junior and Senior level singles skater who was recognized with one or more of the Special Achievement Awards (at least one +2 G.O.E., Highest Spin and Step Sequence scores) that were given out for the first time at the 2011 Regional Championships!
It’s a great idea (the brainchild of USFS’ Athlete Development Committee), and if you would like to contribute your feedback (approval, questions, suggestions, etc.) on this topic, please submit a comment using the online form (comments are not published publically in the blog at this time and may be submitted anonymously if you wish).
I’ve added a link on each of the 9 Regionals pages titled *NEW* Special Achievement Awards (PDF), and for convenience’s sake, here are direct links to all 9 PDF documents:
New England
North Atlantic
South Atlantic
Eastern Great Lakes
Southwestern
Upper Great Lakes
Central Pacific
Northwest Pacific
Southwest Pacific
12/7 UPDATE: Great News! Awards will also be given at the upcoming 2011 U.S. Junior Figure Skating Championships in Salt Lake City, Utah! For more info:
