TALBOT FIGURE SKATING TEAM IS A
S.U.P.E.R. T.E.A.M.
SOCIALIZE. We will plan parties, picnics, lock-ins and team dinners. Trips to Stars on Ice or Six Flags too. Our priority is to make the Team will be fun for parents, siblings, coaches, and skaters. By fostering a sense of community, our members will become more invested in the team and the arena.
UNIVERSAL APPEAL. The team is open to all ages and levels. We will encouraging parents, siblings, beginners and advanced skaters to join. The Team will make everyone feel special and important.
PLANNING. We will attempt to plan at least one event per month during the season in addition to the various competitions. Team meetings, fundraisers, parties, shows, and exhibitions are just the start.
EXCLUSIVE & INCLUSIVE. Membership to the team is a privilege. Our team invites skaters from Production, Synchro, Jump & Spin, and Ensemble groups. All will also be encouraged to do individual events.
RECOGNIZABLE. Team jackets, T-shirts, and pins for members to show pride. Coach and parent T-shirts too!
TRAVEL! Away events such as Worlds and Artistic Challenge will build team spirit. We will start small, trying competitions in neighboring districts and/or states.
EVENTS. Time and money are valuable resources. Picking events close to home will save on travel expenses. We will attempt to do at least one away event for the end of the season.
ADVERTISE. We want to make our team visible in the arena. Bulletin boards are a great way to our team noticed and share information with other skaters. Kids and parents love to see their pictures displayed. We will keep the board updated with upcoming event information at TCCC and surrounding areas. It is the best way to share information about the team and the sport of figure skating.
MORE ... Educating our skaters on the many options and advantages of the Ice Skating Institute. There are events for everyone. Stroking and Interp are some of the events that do not require private lessons. We will keep our skaters informed on new events like Ensemble and Rhythmic Skating. Our goal is to involve as many people as possible on our team. Team points are an added bonus at competitions. We want to help incorporate team events into the TCCC Learn to Skate program. Classes on Rhythmic Skating can perform in an exhibition on test day. We can also have Competition Prep Camps and Classes. We can teach Stroking, Jump and Spin team as well as Interp clinics.
