It was decided at the recent NISA Technical Committee meeting that the PeeWee E classification would, as a trial at the 2011-2012 British Championships, have its own competition separate from the PeeWee D as in the past.

As it is a trial there will be no trophy or medals and would not be a British Championship.

PeeWee E skaters will have the option of skating in the PeeWee D British Championship instead if they wish.

If the trial is successful an approach will be made to the NISA Board to give the age group Championship status in future years.

The following items have been received about Star Class events.  If you require more information (such as what the qualifying tables mean!) please speak to Archie.

Would all eligible skaters wishing to skate in the Bormio Star Class Competition please note that I have to submit entries  via shorttrack online by 1^st October latest.   A permit to skate abroad will also need to be applied for and issued by NISA.

The forthcoming season’s UK fixture list has now been added to the Events Diary.

The first Star-Class Newsletter   of the new season is now available for all you skaters thinking about European glory.
