We practice on select Sunday nights at Centennial Ice Rink. Additionally, skaters are encouraged to practice independently during freestyle sessions at Robert Crown Community Center and other local rinks.
Competition

We compete at all three competitions hosted in the Midwest Conference with the hopes of qualifying for the National Intercollegiate Final.
Skaters have the opportunity to compete individually in Short Program, Excel Free Skate, Championship Free Skate, Solo Pattern Dance, Solo Free dance or with other team members in Team Maneuvers. Depending on the athletes’ placement within their group, they earn team points added to a cumulative team point total.
Exhibition
Exhibition
We end the year with the annual NUFSC exhibition in the spring. This is a wonderful opportunity for skaters to perform in a variety of programs, including our competition programs, solos, small group numbers, class routines, and full team performances. This allows us to show off our hard-work, creativity, and growth in front of friends, family, and the Northwestern community.
Tryouts
Tryouts
We hold an open house practice during the first week of fall quarter, providing an opportunity for new and returning skaters to join the team. This practice also serves as a tryout for our Team Maneuvers teams. It’s a great way to meet the team and start your skating journey at Northwestern!
