Particpation Information

In addition to regularly scheduled practices and competitions, Rhythm and Blades skaters are expected to partipate in additional team building activities.

All the teams will participate in our local camp August 13-15 with guest coach Jeannine Cullen Weinschrad, an International coach who is currently head coach of Team Phoenix. Jeannine’s daughter Erin Cullen will also be part of our camp. Erin skated on the Haydenettes the past two seasons and skated at the 2010 World Championships in Colorado Springs where they earned the Bronze medal. Congratulations Hayden and Erin!
