Hayden Synchronized Skating
Hayden Synchronized Skating is the premier Synchronized skating organization in the United States. The Hayden teams are led by the Haydenettes, the 2007 U.S. National Champions and World Championship competitors. By virtue of their unequaled competitive record of sixteen U.S. National Championships and representing the U.S. in every World Championship, the Haydenettes are recognized around the world as America's Synchronized Skating team.
Synchronized skating, a 50-year old sport which began in the U.S., joins the familiar mens, ladies, pairs and ice dance competitions as popular competitive sports and family entertainment. "Synchro" as the sport is known by its fans, is sanctioned by U. S. Figure Skating (USFS) and the International Skating Union (ISU), the governing bodies for all skating events in the U.S. and internationally. USFS considers Synchro as the fastest growing part of competitive figure skating with more than 400 teams competing across the U.S.
Based in historic Lexington, Massachusetts, the Hayden Synchro teams are comprised of five individual teams competing under sanctioning by USFS including the Ice Mates in the Novice Division, the Lexettes competing in the Junior Division, the Haydenettes in the elite Senior Division and two Esprit de Corps teams that compete in the Adult and Masters Divisions.
In addition to competitions, each of the teams appear in various ice shows, exhibitions and other events around the country. The Haydenettes have been featured on the TODAY show numerous times skating from the famed Rockefeller Centre ice rink in Manhattan, the team has been featured on LifeTime TV and for the third year in a row the team will be featured during the skating exhibition part of the ISU sanctioned Grand Prix event Skate America on ABC-TV.
The sport of Synchronized skating is attracting fans due to its speed, artistry and the risk and excitement of 16 skaters on-ice competing in a team sport. Synchronized skaters are increasingly recognized by many as the most versatile skater-athletes as they perfom elements from singles, pairs and ice dance. The Hayden teams and all of figure skating expect that some day Synchronized Team Skating will move beyond a World Championship event to someday become a competitive medal sport in the Olympics -- and the Haydenettes goal is to be at the top of the list to represent the USA!
