3 GENERAL INFORMATION 1. The purpose of this event is to provide skaters with the opportunity to showcase their skills in a fun and interactive environment. In support of Skate Canada s on-going implementation of the Long Term Athlete Development Model, the CanSkate element event has been formatted to recognize the philosophies of the Learn to Skate stage. The focus of the event is on individual skill improvement and therefore performances are not ranked. Instead of the traditional podium presentations for first, second and third, all skaters will receive a certificate indicating their overall performance level award (Gold, Silver, Bronze or Merit). The award level will be based on the assessment of four individual elements. Each element is evaluated using three predetermined performance standards. Your skater will receive a full overview of their performance on the scoring standards chart which will be provided along with their award certificate. 2.

Standards of performance The desired performance standard for each element is defined by three levels: Gold, Silver and Bronze. Each element consists of three features. To achieve a Bronze, Silver or Gold award level on any element, the skater must demonstrate the first (bolded) feature at or above that level and they must demonstrate at least one other feature of the element at or above the award level. When at least a Bronze level is not achieved for an element, the skater is awarded a merit level. Performance standards are measured in proportion to the skater s age, size, and physical strength.
