In 2020, our Junior team was named an alternate to the World Championships and competed in Nottingham, Great Britain (silver) and Gothenburg, Sweden. TEAMS
The Starlights field competitive synchronized skating teams. The number and levels of teams may change each season due to a variety of factors including United States Figure Skating parameters, skaters’ ages, and their levels of ability. Typically, teams will have more skaters on the team than will be skating in a competition. This allows the team to have a full roster in case of injury, illness, or other unforeseen situations.
