In accordance with ISU Regulation 2018, Rule 104, paragraph 15, the following competitions have been
announced. (See also Rule 107, paragraph 17 - ISU sanctioned events).
This Communication does not replace announcements according to Rule 112.

The below International Competitions calendar is valid as of July 31, 2021. Due to the current

might happen any time. All changes will be reflected in the ISU event calendar available on

Two new Senior B internationals:

USFS previously had announced on April 13 that the 2021 U.S. International Figure Skating Classic (September 15-18) would be held for the first time in Norwood, Mass., but the ISU table lists the location as TBA.

@Sylvia do you know if anyone is planning to compile a master spreadsheet (like days of old!) featuring all the the competitions and dates at the different levels? I loved that resource for keeping track of what is happening through the season. I'm sure it was a ton of work to put it together - my thanks in advance to the volunteer(s) if he/she/they choose to compile it again for the 21/22 season!

Two new Senior B internationals:

12-15 August 2021 Norwood (Boston) / MA USA 2021 Cranberry Cup International + Lake Placid Ice Dance International

I found both competition announcements linked from the Skating Club of Boston's website here: https://scboston.org/cranberry/

In both announcements: "A decision regarding chaperones and spectators will be made by July 15, 2021."
ISU Minimum Technical Scores can be attained in both competitions.

The Organizer reserves the right to accept a limited number of entries. Skaters will be notified of their acceptance by Sunday July 25, 2021. Should skaters not be accepted, skaters will be offered an opportunity to compete in the 2021 Cranberry Open [club competition] or be refunded (minus processing fees). Skaters must let the Organizing Committee know within 24 hours of notification or skater will automatically be transferred into equivalent Open event and no refunds will be given at that point.
All entries must be submitted online by Thursday, July 15, 2021 through the US Figure Skating Event Management System.

I don't know. I've been trying to keep track of U.S. club competitions this spring/summer and am still behind on compiling info.

Silly question: Why would Trusova do this event, when there are other Sr Bs & Challengers closer to her home?

Morisi Kvit. will also be here. Eteri or another coach on the team would be here with two..aha! Diana Davis, Eteri’s dter, will also be here, in ice dance. That must be it...

Replying to @kiwiskater in this relevant thread:

It is not yet on ISU website but it is on Italian Federation calendar:
IceLab International Cup (Senior Pairs; Junior Men, Women and Pair) and Bergamo on Ice Cup (Novices) have been moved to 14-16 January 2022.

They were scheduled for 5-7 November but now Italian GP takes place in that week. So I suppose Italian Fed decided to focus on the GP also in terms of organizational support and resources, moving the minor international events to another period.

 

[Andrea82]

The announcement for Ice Star is finally out.

Deadline for entries is 10th October.

 

[Andrea82]

Golden Bear, Crystal Skate, Denkova-Staviski Cup, Kaunas Amber Cup and Bosphorus Istanbul Cup are reported as cancelled on ISU website.

ISU calendar of events has Trophée Métropole Nice Côte d’Azur taking place during Oct 20 - Oct 24, 2021. No entries so far. I only noticed it because some Finnish skaters are about to take part in it. (According to the the FFSA website). Any here knowing something about this secret competition.

 

[Andrea82]

62nd Grand Prix of Bratislava (17-19th December) and Latvia International Competition (10-12th December) cancelled.

They waited til the end but after all the put online the result page and the schedule

FIRST TROPHY METROPOLE NICE CÔTE D AZUR

It seems they will offer a livestream on the YouTube channel of French Federation.

Mentor Torun Cup cancelled

Only the Challenger part of Golden Spin will take place. Junior events have been cancelled. This has possibly contributed to having 70 junior women entered at Santa Claus Cup....
