Overview

This competition is open to all eligible, restricted, reinstated, or readmitted persons as defined by the Eligibility Rules and are currently registered members of a U.S. Figure Skating member club, a collegiate club, or an individual member in accordance with the current rulebook.


Live-Scoring links will be live 24 hours before the event starts.

ELIGIBILITY/TEST LEVEL

Empire State Winter Games Figure Skating Events will be conducted in accordance with the rules and regulations of U.S. Figure Skating, as set forth in the current rulebook, as well as any pertinent updates which have been posted on the U.S. Figure Skating website.

ELIGIBILITY
All skaters must have a New York State affiliation in one or more of the following ways: reside in New York State, attend school in New York State, be a member of a New York State Figure Skating Club or have their primary training location in New York State. Skaters who do not have a State Games in their own state may also compete. Skaters from other states would be classified in the competition as a participant from their own state for the purpose of distribution of invitations for the 2024 State Games of America.
 
TEST LEVEL
The competition level is the highest test passed as of the entry deadline in the discipline the skater is entering. Entrants may skate one level above that for which they qualify, but they may not skate down in any event. Skaters may only enter ONE level per event. Skaters entering beginner–pre-juvenile events will be divided as closely as possible by age should the number of entries warrant more than one group. The LOC reserves the right to combine levels where there are not enough entries. Synchronized team age and test level eligibility requirements may be found in the US Figure Skating rulebook.
