Our Club

The Calgary Synchronized Skating Club is home to the dynamic and exciting CSSC Skating Teams. Our members represent many of the Calgary area figure skating clubs, where they continue to train and pursue their individual goals. We are not affiliated with any other figure skating club. We concentrate only on synchronized skating.

Our club has consistently ranked as some of the top Alberta and Western Canadian teams. The coaching staff has had continued success by bringing the level of skating, choreography, performance and enthusiasm to this group of dedicated skaters.

Our History

The Calgary Synchronized Skating Club, formerly known as Calgary Precision, was formed in May of 1995 with a goal of creating competitive teams within an atmosphere of fun and co-operation. Calgary Precision entered the synchronized arena in 1996 winning the Alberta Championships and also becoming Western Canadian Champions.

As well as competitive excellence, CSSC teams were also featured at the Calgary Flames Hockey Games, The Oldtimers Hockey Challenge and the Opening Ceremonies of the Canadian Airlines Saddledome. CSSC was here to stay.

Our Coaching team

The club looks forward to fielding four programs in the 2009/10 skating season. With that in mind, our coaching team is ready and excited to work with all of our skaters both returning and new.
