2023 U.S. Figure Skating Qualifying Season
For the 2022-23 season, the Competitions Committee has proposed a National Qualifying Season combining the standalone October qualifying competitions, Regional (singles) and Sectional (pairs and ice dance) Challenges into approved series competitions from mid-July to early October. Skaters will advance to the Sectional Singles, U.S. Pairs and U.S. Ice Dance Finals in November 2022 and culminating with the 2023 Toyota U.S. Figure Skating Championships and National Development Camp in January 2023.
The U.S. Figure Skating National Qualifying Series (NQS) was approved by the 2018 Governing Council and implemented in the summer of 2019. The NQS is a series of competitions hosted individually by member clubs nationwide, in which athletes enter and earn a score.
