China - entries due by July 17 - https://isu-d8g8b4b7ece7aphs.a03.az...HN2026-Announcement-Final-1783082656-9157.pdf

haribobo by naming who you think are the main contenders for JGP CHN in each discipline (top 10 in singles, for example). Which skaters making their JGP debuts are you excited to see?So, I've already seen on X the following info -So we can help "poll-happy"haribobo by naming who you think are the main contenders for JGP CHN in each discipline (top 10 in singles, for example). Which skaters making their JGP debuts are you excited to see?
I'm not familiar with Hayato Okazaki JPN - will go look him up (ETA that he placed J8/S30 at Nationals last season and was the Novice A champion in Oct. 2023).
Men: Lazarev AIN2, Long CAN, Ebihara JPN, Blackwell USA, Li NZL...
Women: Kostyleva AIN2, Barakhtina CAN, Gao CHN, Jin CHN, 3rd CHN? Minighini ITA? Miyazaki JPN (debut), Wada JPN, Hwang KOR, Chao USA...
[FRA] Boys are back to Champigny vs Annecy. They are all new to the JGPs. But where is Elian Thomann ? I hope he's not injured.
Other than that, I'm quite happy to see Baptiste Gellon is in for his first eligible season.
Ice dance is 5 couples from Lyon, 3 youngsters from Villard, 2 from Chalons, 1 from Reims, 1 (newly paired, he's from the US) from Vitry and 1 from IAM (with 2 canadians skating for France). Unfortunatly, they won't all make the JGP.
ETA: if I checked properly, France didn't use its girl's entry in China so it is left with 4. Gladki will take 2. I hope some other girl get 1, like Anne-Sophie Heurtebis who is 14. OTOH, France has 3 entries for 4 boys.
Always glad to see solo ice dancers find partnership opportunities!Profiles have been added and the dance spot is a new [German] team: Dessie Hoewing-Moxley / Artyom Sladkov. (He previously competed with Nelly Hemcke, she was in solo dance representing the US.)
USFS listed the top 14 men's finishers in the U.S. Junior Team Cup in Milwaukee and the top 15 women (Fegan & Samiri did not compete in Milwaukee but I assume they could be included in the future).They are a WISA team. Since WISA already has a Chinese team [Y/Y] and an American team [S/K] at JGP China, guess it's a reasonable choice to send them.
USFS has always listed a ton of subs.Why is the US listing SO many substitutes?
There's no limit on subs for JGPs, AFAIK. It's mainly for later JGPs when decisions often are made for strategic purposes - which singles skaters/teams get a 2nd spot with a chance to make the JGP Final or which skaters get their first assignment (larger pool to choose from).I believe the number of alternates is more limited for ISU Championships, yes.Wasn't there a limit on subs, or is that just for ISU championships?

There was a rumor a couple weeks ago that AboVes were maybe going to Thailand for their first JGP this season. They could be doing Thailand and Turkey if there are still the concerns about him getting a visa for Latvia or Poland.Do the ice dance coaches communicate with each other, I wonder? Do PG/BK's assignments means Aboian/Veselukhin are not going to Georgia and Slovenia?![]()

Right, but there's a 2 week break between Bangkok and Ankara, so they could be doing back-to-back JGPs.If A/V’s first JGP is indeed Bangkok, I had assumed, for timing and visa reasons, their second would be Batumi. Let’s see what happens.
For visa reasons, I can’t see them going to Poland.
Maybe Latvia hadn't yet held their JGP selection comp. by the entries deadline for JGP CHN so all the possible candidates were listed?The U.S. always does this. I was kinda surprised Latvia has that many subs for women.

CHN Interclub Stage 1 Junior Pairs results (Guo/Zhang & Zhang/Feng did not compete here): https://skatingscores.com/2627/cnclub1/jr/pairs/results/It seems like China is holding a JGP selection comp this week.
China may not have enough junior pairs teams to justify using more than 3 spots per JGP. There's no good reason to assign all three of their teams that made the JGPF last season to the same JGPs this year. They can maximize their chances of qualifying all three (or more) teams by spreading out the assignments. I'd worry if they aren't on the JGP Latvia list next week.does anyone know what happened to guo/zhang, are they injured/split. they're not listed on the chinese entries.

Incel's date of birth is July 4 (ISU uses the day/month/year format) - if a skater is born on July 1st (and after) he/she makes the cutoff.Turkey assigned Furkan Emre INCEL who is age ineligible.
Oh, ok. I didn't do the math... I was relying on the SkatingScores.com eligibility infobox to do it for me. It looks like they've got it wrong (they must have his DOB stored incorrectly).Incel's date of birth is July 4 (ISU uses the day/month/year format) - if a skater is born on July 1st (and after) he/she makes the cutoff.
