Belfast and Newcastle both have decent sized arenas that were open that weekend, but if British Ice Skating was set on Sheffield, then no, iceSheffield was their only option.Could it have gone to some other rink?
The prizes for the winners should be awesome. Maybe gold blades or something!ETA: Is this the first time a figure skating competition has a title sponsor that's actually related to its own sport?
All of the EIHL teams except Belfast have at least one game/fixture scheduled for the Nov 11th-13th. Glasgow is playing Fife at home on 11/11.Skating Club of Boston is only 2,500 - maybe the ISU want their events to appear in demand this year? I’d argue that Glasgow would’ve been a better size option for this event (since that’s the team Sheffield are playing that weekend) and has a 5,000 capacity.
I think they’ve not gone for an ‘arena’ because of the logistics and the cost (do they cover the cost of the ice? Arenas are mode awkward to set up in that regard) plus the likes of Newcastle are very rarely used for sports events anyway.

I'm sure someone will start a new thread in GSD as soon as the initial assignments are published tomorrow.I am seeing all the Grand Prix Competitions and Dates now, just no assignments/competitor lists yet:
ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating
The ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating Series started in 1995 and consists of six international senior invitational events and the ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating Final. The skaters are seeded and invited to the six Grand Prix of Figure Skating events based on the results of the previous ISU...www.isu.org

I still haven’t bought airfare yet and that would do it. I know things will change before then but with airfare the way it is I need the hope of something new/joyous with most of my favorites retiring.And Donovan Carrillo please!
