Welcome to The Yarmouth Skating Club Site

Proud members of Skate Canada and Skate Nova Scotia.

Now that we are in the Winter Months please remember that if school is cancelled due to bad weather it does not mean that we are also cancelled as the weather can often change from the morning to the afternoon.

If we cancel it will be posted on the website, announced on CJLS and as a last resort you could call the Mariners Centre at 742-3232 and inquire. If the weather is felt to be too bad and we do cancel a session we make that decision by noon.

Of course the decision to come to the arena in bad weather is always up to the parent/guardian of the skater(s).

 A few things to note that are coming up in YSC.

Skaters will be receiving their Skate A Thon forms. This is a major fundraiser for the Club. There are many great prizes to be won.

Another fun event is the Cook's Dairy Funskate. This is actually the 10th year that Cook's Dairy has sponsored this wonferful event and we are so greatful to them!! What is a "Funskate"?? This is a competition for the CANSkaters and Junior STARSkaters. The skater will compete 4 skills against other skaters at the same age and skill level. (If your skater has not earned a badge yet they would complete skills like walking across the ice and falling down and getting up) A "Funskate" means everyone receives a goody bag and a medal   This is a fun event that we hope you will consider. More information and application forms will be coming out in the next few weeks.

CANSkate was cancelled on Thursday Dec 15th due to the Cook's Cup Hockey Tournament (High School Hockey)

This session has been rescheduled to Thursday March 22nd from 5:30-6:15pm
