EXCEL NATIONAL FESTIVAL
The Excel National Festival is an opportunity for skaters from Aspire through Senior level to participate and compete at a national event.
Held annually in July, the National Festival is made up of two parts:
Excel Series Final and Finalist Camp - The top Excel Series skaters from each section will be invited to participate in the invitation-only Excel Series Final and Finalist Camp.
Open-Invitation Excel Series Competition - Skaters at the Aspire through Preliminary levels can compete in the Open-Invitation Excel Series competition.
The 2025 Excel National Final and Festival will be held at the Broadmoor World Arena in Colorado Springs, CO from July 9-13, 2025.
The primary mission of the Excel Program is to inspire more of our young athletes to continue training and remain committed to participating in figure skating by providing them with events that allow them to showcase their strengths. Additionally, this program serves as an opportunity for grassroots skaters and coaches to familiarize themselves with the fundamentals of the International Judging System (IJS) through a phased approach which allows them to become proficient and confident with the IJS.
Excel offers young athletes an exciting and competitive environment that motivates them to focus on strengthening their program components and advancing their technical skills each season. Additionally, athletes can choose to register for the Excel Series where they earn points based on their result of an excel event at a designated excel series competition. The top finishers are invited to the Excel National Final.
Skaters competing in the Excel levels of preliminary plus, pre-juvenile plus, juvenile, juvenile plus, intermediate, intermediate plus, novice, junior and senior will compete to earn an invitation to participate in the Excel Finalist Camp and National Excel Final at the National Festival.
Skaters competing in the Excel levels of aspire 1-4, pre-preliminary and preliminary will compete to earn special recognition at the National Festival based on their participation and placement within their Section. All skaters competing in these levels who compete in at least two competitions will receive an automatic invitation to compete at the National Festival.
