Welcome

Get Your Skates On!

As President of the New Zealand Ice Figure Skating Association I take this opportunity to welcome all visitors to our website.

If you are a New Zealander looking for information about ice skating in your area, I urge you to contact your nearest club, whose members will be able to give you assistance and information about ice skating in your region.

If you are an overseas visitor, a special welcome to you and thank you for your interest in ice figure skating in New Zealand. New Zealand is a small country with a population of just over 4 million people. Ice figure skating is a minority sport but pursued enthusiastically by our members.

There are indoor ice rinks in Auckland (2), Christchurch, Dunedin, Queenstown and Gore, and seasonal outdoor rinks in Alexandra and Tekapo.

We have approximately 300 competitive and/or medal test members who participate in Singles, Pairs, Ice Dancing, Synchronized Skating and Adult Skating. In the 2021-22 skating season, although skaters opportunities to compete internationally were limited by COVID-19 travel restrictions, we did have skaters compete in a number of international competition including Four Continents and, for the first time since 2008, we had skaters competing at the ISU World Championships.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you would like more information after viewing our website.

Acting President
