ICE'KATEERS Synchronized Skating Teams
What is "Synchro"? Synchronized skating (synchro) is one of the fastest growing disciplines in the world of figure skating. A synchro team is composed of 8-16 athletes who perform a program to music. These programs contain various formations such as circles, lines, blocks, wheels, and intersections.
Figure skating has typically been an individual sport, but with the recent growth of synchronized skating, athletes now have the opportunity of being part of a team, while still participating in the sport they love individually.
 ABOUT THE ICE'KATEERS
The ICE’Kateers Synchronized Skating Team is run and organized through the Anaheim Amateur Figure Skating Association, a non-profit corporation. The ICE’Kateers were formed in 1999. At that time, the ICE’Kateers consisted of 2 teams, each competing at the ISI formation level. Since that time, the ICE’Kateers have grown into a family of teams who represent Anaheim Ice and Glacier Falls Figure Skating Club in local, national and international events. The ICE’Kateers have a team for every age and level of skater.
Team Goals
The primary goals of the ICE’Kateers are to build team camaraderie, good sportsmanship,moral values and to achieve excellence at the local, national and international levels of synchronized skating. Many of our members who have graduated from high school have gone on to colleges that offer synchronized skating programs to continue their skating passion.
Fundraising
Figure skating can be an expensive sport and the Anaheim Amateur Figure Skating Association offers fundraising opportunities for our skaters to raise money for team transportation expenses, practice ice, costumes and other related expenses. Some of our fundraising opportunities include the purchase of scrip, recycling, hosting a golf tournament and participating in holiday gift wrapping. Besides raising money for their teams, the skaters and parents also use this time to bond together and create friendships that will last a lifetime.
How do I Join?
Twice each year the ICE ‘Kateers hold open try-outs… once in the spring and again in the summer. Skaters are asked to perform a variety of skating moves ranging from forward and backward skating to footwork sequences.
Need guidance as to which team is the best level for you?
