Four Continents Figure Skating Championships

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Four Continents Figure Skating Championships is an annual figure skating competition. The International Skating Union established it in 1999 to provide skaters representing non-European countries with a similar competition to the much older European Figure Skating Championships and a chance to win prize money. The 4 other annual figure skating competitions designated "ISU Championships" are the World Figure Skating Championships, the European Figure Skating Championships, the World Junior Figure Skating Championships, and the World Synchronized Skating Championships. The four continents of the event's name refer to the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Australia (four of the continents represented in the Olympic rings, omitting Europe). Skaters compete in the categories of men's singles, ladies singles, pairs, and ice dancing.
