Figure Skating Championships in Melbourne this week

Over 600 figure skaters are competing in the Australian Figure Skating Championships this week at the O’Brien Group Arena in the Docklands Melbourne.

2014 Olympian Brendan Kerry  has returned from Los Angeles, USA seeking his 5th title, whilst Kailani Craine will defend her title for the third consecutive year. Expect a strong challenge from 2014 Olympian, Brooklee Han.

The Ladies and Mens events will be competed on Thursday, 1 December and Friday 2 December.

Watch out for Australia’s rising pair team, Harley Windsor and Ekaterina Alexandrovskaya who won Australia’s first gold medal at a Junior grand Prix in September at the Tallin Trophy. They will compete at 9.10pm on Tuesday and Wednesday evening 1 & 2 December.

14-year-old NSW 'pocket rocket' Holly Harris is tipped to take out the Junior Ladies title at her first attempt. Holly recently won the Silver Medal in the Junior Division at the Volvo Cup in Latvia.
