Skate Canada - Saskatchewan is excited to host the new STAR 1 - 4 Officials training clinic for new officials. This clinic is part of the new STAR 1-4 Event Official Qualification Pathway launching later this fall and will thus serve as the pilot for Skate Canada. It will be held virtually over three evening sessions in the comfort of your own home.

Thursday, October 14th - 6:30 - 9:30 p.m.*
Monday, October 18th - 6:30 - 9:00 p.m.*
