Scott Hamilton Ice Show to Celebrate Life by Shannon Carey the Fight Against Cancer Is Personal for Scott Hamilton NEWS FROM PROVISION Making miracles Scott Hamilton ice show to celebrate life By Shannon Carey The fight against cancer is personal for Scott Hamilton. The Olympic figure skating legend lost his mother to cancer, has seen many friends struggle with the disease, and is a cancer survivor himself. After his mother passed away in 1977, he supported cancer research. “I always thought that was as far as I could take it,” he said. But with the wisdom and insight he gained as a cancer survivor, Hamilton took his efforts a step further and created the Scott Hamilton CARES Initiative through Cleveland Clinic where he was successfully treated. The program supports clinical research, the 4th Angel Mentoring Program, and Chemocare.com, which puts chemotherapy information in simple English and Spanish. These efforts are funded through a wildly successful Cleveland, Ohio, figure skating Scott Hamilton and Terry Douglass tour the Provision Center for Pro- show. ton Therapy.

  • Strengths and Weaknesses of Figure Skating in Slovakia
    40 - STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF FIGURE SKATING IN SLOVAKIA KRISTÍNA POLÁČKOVÁ, LIBOR DUCHOSLAV, BRANISLAV ANTALA, RÓBERT POLAKOVIČ Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Comenius University in Bratislava, Slovakia, [email protected] doi:10.16887/91.a1.40 Introduction Figure skating is defined as an aesthetic-coordinating sport and many authors consider it one of the most beautiful and sweetest sports, which is close to a work of art (Hrádzka, 2006; Choutka, 1978; Mayerová 1982). Figure skating has two types in which to compete. The first is an individual sport, where they compete in solo women's figure skating and solo male figure skating. The second type is considered a group sport, which has three disciplines, namely dancing pairs, sports couples and synchronized figure skating. At the European Youth Olympic Festival, they compete only in individual disciplines. Overall, we see a problem in figure skating in finding a sufficient number of boys who could be part of pair skating. Adams (2011) deals with this issue, where a smaller number of boys attribute it to finger pointing for homosexuals. Also, an article by Georgiou et al. (2018) deals with the perception of homosexuals and their non- participation in sports activities in terms of revealing their sexual orientation. Figure skating has very deep roots. In the distant past, skating was used as transportation, and only later did elements begin to form and transform into figure skating as we know it today. In the territory of the Slovak Republic, excavations of skates have been found, the age of which we estimate is 5,000 years old (Fukatsch, 2011).

  • Four Continents Men's Recap
    The Skating Lesson Podcast Transcript Four Continents Men’s Recap Jenny Kirk: Hello, and welcome to The Skating Lesson Podcast! I’m Jennifer Kirk, a former US ladies competitor and a three-time world team member. Dave Lease: I’m David Lease, I was not on the world team as you know by now! But I am a figure skating blogger and a current adult skater. Jenny: In this video, we’re going to talk about the Four Continents Championships, particularly the men’s event, which took place last weekend in Osaka Japan. And right now you’re looking at the results on your screen. Kevin Reynolds from Canada won the gold medal followed by Yuzuru Hanyu, Han Yan, Max Aaron, Richard Dornbush, and all Americans heading out the top nine – Ross Miner in ninth place. Absence of Patrick Chan, Canada Dave: Yes, and I think – notably, Patrick Chan was not here. He chose not to compete here after the national championships. I think it’s interesting that he’s not here. He hasn’t been the dominant force this year that he was last year, even though he did have mistakes last year as well. But he chose to really regroup. Many felt that he perhaps felt that he was one-upped by Kevin Reynolds at their nationals. Kevin did so well there, and it looks like Patrick is trying to refocus. Jeremy Abbot chose not to compete here – he had a lot of back issues this year, and he chose to rest, recover, and get ready for the world championships*.
