MURRAYFIELD ICE SKATING CLUB
Murrayfield Ice Skating Club Competition Regulations
1. The Competition will take place at Murrayfield Ice Rink, Edinburgh on 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th May 2015.
Murrayfield is a 60m x 30m ice pad.
2. All competitors are required to be eligible skaters as defined by NISA and may only skate within the events for
which they are qualified by age and standard. The Competition will be held in accordance with NISA under
Permit, (applied for), and it is a requirement that all competitors are a member of NISA. Skaters who have
not paid their NISA membership at the time of the draw will not be entered into the draw and therefore will be
unable to participate in the competition. All participants must quote their NISA membership number on
the entry form or the entry cannot be accepted.
3. Coaches entering skaters for the event must be licensed and have attended a Field Moves seminar (all events)
and a discipline specific IJS seminar either separately or at the NISA coaching conference within the last 3
years if entering skaters into an IJS event. It is important the correct information is provided by the coach
as entry forms submitted with incorrect information will be returned to the skater without being
accepted for the competition.
4. The competitions will be open to all NISA members and the number of entrants in each will be limited.
Competitions may be subdivided by age at the discretion of the organising committee and the Referee. Age
and Standard are as at closing date – 2nd April 2015.
5. All events will be judged under the IJS except Beginner Pairs.
6. Entries to all competitions will be treated strictly on a first received basis. In competitions with only one
competitor, the referee may require that the skater should skate to standard. The competitor will be given the
opportunity to withdraw or skate as preferred. Any competitor affected will be notified following the closing date.
7. A programme element sheet is required for all skaters. Please complete this (elements and timings) even if
the elements and order are subject to change. Entries will not be accepted for IJS events without this,
resulting in the application form being returned to the skater without it being registered for the event.
8. Standards in all events refer to NISA National Tests and these must be attained by the closing date. The
test standards will be strictly adhered to, and if this changes prior to the closing date, notification to the
competition organiser is required immediately. Although the organisers will do their best to accommodate
skaters, test passes do not automatically give the right for entry to be accepted to the new standard/level
attained in particular if the event is already at the maximum number of competitors.
9. There will be no maximum level of Field Moves in any section.
10. A copy of the Skate UK passport must be supplied with entry for all Beginner competitions.
11. Music must be submitted on CD and be clearly marked with the competitors name, competition and length of
programme. There should only be one piece of music on the CD. The music on the CD’s must be music format
playable on a CD player. A back-up of the music is recommended and must be with the Coach at ice level.
12. The use of video equipment or photography is not permitted at any time. The committee and rink management
reserves the right to confiscate any offending equipment, returning it only at the end of the event. An official
photographer and videographer may be present during the event. To comply with the NISA child protection
policy, all competitors consent to being photographed and videoed, by entering the event there is automatic
acceptance that the skater may be photographed/videoed and that any images may be used by MISC for
appropriate reasons only. Unauthorized photography/recording of any competitor is not permitted. The club
are copyright owners of the event and all rights are reserved. Flash Photography is strictly forbidden during
the event. This is dangerous and distracts the skater.
