Skate Canada is the oldest and largest figure skating organization in the world and the governing body for the sport of figure skating in Canada.

Beyond figure skating, Skate Canada is the largest learn-to-skate teaching organization in Canada, and is dedicated to creating a nation of skaters both recreationally and competitively.

Organizationally, Skate Canada is divided into 10 Sections, corresponding to provincial boundaries (with Yukon Territory linked to BC, and Nunavut and North West Territories to Alberta). Within the BC/YT Section, there are 5 Regions: BC Coast, Okanagan, Cariboo North Central, Kootenay and Vancouver Island.

The BC Coast Region extends from Hope to Lillooet and includes the Sunshine Coast, Powell River and Yukon. As a Regional organization, we support approximately 12,000 skaters in 36 clubs by providing skaters with opportunities to compete, and to acquire and develop a range of figure skating skills and experiences.
