Israeli Figure Skating Championships

Ice skating in Canada Centre, Metulla

The Israeli Figure Skating Championships is a figure skating competition held annually to crown the national champions of Israel. Winners are given the title National Champion. Over the years, the date of the competition has been moved for regional political reasons or for the lack of ice. Nationals are mostly held in the Canada Centre in Metulla. The levels of the nationals are senior, junior, novice, and age groups. The disciplines of competition are men's singles, ladies singles, pairs, and ice dancing. Some years some disciplines are not held because there are no skaters in those disciplines. The competition is held by the Israel Ice Skating Federation, which was founded in 1990. It joined the International Skating Union as a full member in 1993.
