Preparing For An Assessment Day:

• Approximately 4 weeks before assessment day, your coach prepares a list of potential assessments.The list is forwarded to the Assessment coordinator who in turn submits the assessment list to Skate Canada.

• If you have any questions or concerns about the upcoming assessment day, you should discuss with your coach at this time.

• Your coach will have until 2 weeks before the first scheduled assessment day to decide whether or not the skater is ready to  be assessed.

• If he/she feels that the test is not ready to be tried, the test will be "PULLED".

• There is no charge for tests that are pulled at least 2 weeks prior to assessment day.

• Any assessment that is not pulled 2 weeks prior to the first scheduled assessment day are included in the final submission to Skate Canada and must be paid for, according to Skate Canada rules.

• Once the final assessment lists are received by the Assessment coordinator, assessment fee sheets are prepared and forwarded to the coaches for distribution.

• Please ask your coach for your assessment fee sheets, assessment fees must be paid one week before the scheduled assessment day.

• The assessment fee sheets and payment should be enclosed in an envelope and deposited in the mail box inside Pad 2 marked "ASSESSMENT DAY”.

• Only tests that have been paid by the deadline date will be included in the test day schedule.

• Assessments  that have not been paid for by the deadline date will be submitted to Skate Canada as a "RETRY". The skater will still be responsible for assessment fee.

• The schedule will be posted on the Lindsay Skating Club website and on the bulletin board at the arena, one week prior to assessment day.

 

Assessment Day:

• Skaters should be in the arena ready for assessment at least 30 minutes before their scheduled assessment time.

• **Skaters missing their scheduled assessment time will not be permitted to be assessed at a later time.**

• They should be lined up at the door to the arena ready to go as soon as the group before has finished.

• It is important that skaters move on and off the ICE QUICKLY in order for the assessment day to run on schedule.

• Assessment results will be released to coaches/skaters only after all paperwork has been signed and checked by the evaluators.

• There are sometimes delays in this process and your patience is appreciated.
