General Information About The BPFSC

The BPFSC received status as a USFSA skating club in May of 1997. As of January of 2002, we have more than 150 members in the club. The club’s purpose is to provide a forum for skaters who wish to improve their skills beyond what they can achieve from community lessons and open skating. As a member of the BPFSC, you will:

  • Be able to contract for Freestyle and Moves in the Field sessions
  • Become a member of the United States Figure Skating Association
  • Receive Skating Magazine from the USFSA
  • Receive club handbook and newsletter
  • Participate in all club activities including the Annual Banquet and Annual Ice Show

PLUS, get to know a great group of kids whom all LOVE SKATING!! It’s a lot of fun!

Membership Information


The membership year runs from July 1 to June 30. There are currently three types of membership in the BPFSC. They are: Senior Club, Junior Club and Associate member depending on your skating level and whether BPFSC will be your Home Club. Senior Club and Junior Club memberships are considered BPFSC Home Club memberships. If you are already a member of another club, and plan on skating at Brooklyn Park to supplement skating at your home club, then you should join as an Associate member. The major difference between Home and Associate members is that Home Club members are able to move up higher in the seniority list which makes it easier to sign-up for desired ice times.

Current BPFSC Pros


Usually skaters who have reached the Junior Club level or beyond, contract with a pro for private lessons to supplement their group lessons. BPFSC members must contract with a "club" pro. If your pro is not a BPFSC pro, please have them contact the President of the BPFSC for information on pros requirements to teach on club ice. This will need to be done before you can receive lessons at the rink from your current pro. If you are looking for a pro to begin private lessons, contact your Skating School Director or the President of the BPFSC.

Contract Information


The BPFSC currently has a number of contracts per year. Each contract varies in length but is generally 8 weeks long. About half way through each contract, all members receive information about the next contract.

Questions


If you have any questions about joining the BPFSC, please contact the Membership and Ice Contract Chairperson. He will help answer your questions or direct you to another of our board members who can.
