British Figure Skating Championships

Add article description


The British Figure Skating Championships (known in some years as the British Ice Figure and Dance Championships and the British Ice Figure & Synchronized Skating Championships) are held annually to determine the national champions of the United Kingdom. Skaters compete in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance at all levels, although not every discipline is held every year due to a lack of participants.

The competition is typically held in November or December; thus, for example, the 1962 Championships were held in November 1961 as part of the 1961–62 season.

The British Championships have been open to skaters from Commonwealth countries, and skaters from Canada and Australia, in particular, have entered in some years. Before the establishment of a ladies' category in 1927, female skaters would occasionally compete in the men's event.
