My U.S. Figure Skating membership is through The Skating Club of New York, where I am coach member.
The SCNY was founded in 1863 and is the second oldest skating club in the United States. In fact, it was one of the founding members of the United States Figure Skating Association, now U.S. Figure Skating. Among the skaters who have represented the club in competition are Johnny Weir, Elaine Zayak, Adam Rippon, Maia and Alex Shibutani, plus Olympic champions Sarah Hughes, Carol Heiss, and Dorothy Hamill.
The SCNY is a wonderful, well-funded club, especially for adult skaters! Believe it, or not, the president of SCNY, Troy Goldstein, lives in Randolph, NJ. Troy is also a Technical Specialist and has served on the Technical Panel at the 2022 Olympic Games.
Here is a list of other clubs that correspond to the rinks that I coach out of:
SportsCare Arena (formerly Aspen Ice): Freedom Figure Skating Club
William G. Mennen Sports Arena: Skating Club of Morris
Skylands Ice World: North Jersey Figure Skating Club
Additional Suggestion: Essex Skating Club of New Jersey - I am an associate member of this club!
Any skater wishing to take a U.S. Figure Skating test must be a member! You may not take official tests with a Learn to Skate USA or Basic Skills membership.
Additionally, skaters taking lessons, skating on freestyle sessions, or club sessions are expected to have a current U.S. Figure Skating membership to ensure that you are covered by the sports accident insurance.
You may join U.S. Figure Skating directly, or through your local club.
All U.S. Figure Skating Memberships expire after June 30 of each year. You are expected to renew your membership for the current year that begins July 1.
