A BRIEF MESSAGE FROM THE ISI FIELD REPRESENTATIVES:


WHAT are several ways to make mandatory membership easy at your facility?


• Add skaters’ ISI membership fees to existing class registration fees for Alpha and higher skaters.


Shanley Pascal Oversees:


Districts 5, 18 and 11-16


• Offer a “season pass/rink membership” that includes ISI membership and then “discounts” that fee from program tuition.


• Include a link to register for ISI on your class registration site — once skaters have their membership number, they can input it to continue to register for class.


• Create a pre-requisite “class” (ISI membership) that skaters must register for in addition to or before registering for Alpha and higher classes.


Mandy Whitacre Oversees:


Districts 1-4 and 6-9


WHERE do you submit test and/ or membership registration?


You don’t have to go online to submit these one-by-one! You have several options:


• Submit through weSKATE. (This sends info to ISI but will no longer feed it back as we update our software for a new, exciting platform.)


• Send batch entries to ISI Membership Coordinator Sandey Carlsen (sandey@skateisi.org) in a spreadsheet.


WHEN should you reach out to your ISI field rep?


Any time! If we don’t know the answer, we will find it for you! Most of all, call us whenever you:


• Have questions, concerns or feedback regarding membership or programs


• Want to brainstorm ways to boost or troubleshoot your programs


• Could use help hiring and/or onboarding a new director, coach or manager


• Need someone to listen — we love hearing about different facilities across the country!


WHY should you reach out to your ISI field rep?


Field reps are just one more way to access ISI personnel. If we don’t know the answer, we will find it! We’re happy to do the research for you.


HOW can you get U.S. Figure Skating skaters to participate in ISI?


• Let them know that ISI competition events can bolster their competition season preparations. Skaters can perform their U.S. Figure Skating programs in our Open Freestyle events to expand their competition options and/or to prepare for an upcoming U.S. Figure Skating event.


(Please refer to pages 194-195 in the 2018 ISI Handbook to show skaters the competition events they are eligible to participate in.)
