Starting a new thread with the latest Decisions of the Council document (Communication No. 2367) published by the ISU on 29 January 2021: https://www.isu.org/isu-news/news/1...update-on-isu-event-calendar?templateParam=15
The ISU Council met on January 28, 2021 via an online meeting. The following were among the [figure skating/synchro] decisions taken by the Council during the meeting.
the ISU World Figure Skating Championships remain scheduled as planned, to be held in Stockholm, Sweden on March 22-28, 2021. Since these Championships serve as a Qualification Competition for the 2022 Olympic Winter Games in Beijing, the Council will review the Olympic Qualification status at its next meeting [2 March]. Depending on the actual entries received by the deadline of March 1, 2021, the ISU Council will evaluate and decide at that time whether and which changes to the Olympic qualification system could be necessary.
Due to the ongoing pandemic and detrimental consequences for the organizing and participating ISU Members, including organizational issues, travel restrictions, lack of training and preparation time and finally the confirmation from many ISU Members that they would not be able to attend, the Council decided that the the ISU World Synchronized Skating Championships 2021, scheduled to be held in Zagreb (CRO) on April 9-10, 2021 are cancelled.
