## Tournaments

Before the start of judging, competitors are allotted a warmup time to adjust to the feel of ice and warmup.
Within each tournament skaters are usually separated into brackets depending on the level of badge test they have completed.
In each bracket are also separated into different groups so that the rink isn't too crowded during warmup time.

## Figure Skating Clubs

Figure skating clubs(FSC) for short, are organizations usually led by a head coach and assistant coach. More coaches may also be employed the more figure skaters are in a club. Joining a FSC is generally a must in order to join a competition, but it also provides the skater with various benefits as well. FSCs generally operate within a single rink and often contract with them for blocks of time not open to the general public in order to facilitate a more effective training environment without distractions.
