YSC STARSkater Wall Of Fame
Our STARSkaters compete in 2 different judging systems in the province.
One is for the STAR 1-4 level skaters. They will receive levels (Gold, Silver, Bronze or Merit) on each element they complete at competition. The total number of levels they receive determines which ribbon level they receive (Gold, Silver, Bronze or Merit)
Our STARSkaters in STAR 5 to Gold and Pre-Juvenile to Senior receive a pre-determined amount of points (set by Skate Canada before the competition season begins) for each element they complete in their programs at competition. These elements can then receive GOE's (Grades of Execution) a zero means the element was to standard/satisfactory. A minus GOE might be given if the skater did a spin that did not stay in one spot while they were spinning or puts a hand down when landing a jump. A minus GOE means the skater receives less points for the element.
A plus GOE may be given if the element was performed above standard level. For example a spin with excellent postions or a jump which was done higher and with greater speed than standard. When a Skater receives a plus GOE they receive more points for that element.
Skaters at the Pre-Novice and higher or Senior Silver and higher level also can receive "levels" on their spins and footwork sequences. These levels are based on more positions in spins and more turns in footwork. The higher the level received the more points the element is worth.
Below is a list of our STARSkaters in STAR 5 and above who received + GOE's at competition and spin levels:
