Raising champions since 1961
Called at that time the Bondi Junction Ice Dance and Figure Skating Club, the Club changed its name to the Sydney Figure Skating Club when it moved to the newly opened Burwood Glaciarium in 1964.
Over nearly 50 years, the Club has had many members who have gone on to represent Australia at international, World and Winter Olympic events.
SFSC is pleased to announce that it will be hosting the third Jump Start Clinic for 2019 on Sunday 10th November from 8:30am-11:30am at Canterbury Olympic Ice Rink.
This clinic is open to all skaters from Skate School Tiny Tots to Preliminary and Adult Copper, and is a great way to improve a wide range of skills with top-level coaches.
The cost is $50 per skater and includes Rink Entry, On-ice Classes and a Parent Information Session to help them understand how the sport works.
Registrations are now open and can be completed HERE
