Four Continents Figure Skating Championships Wiki Information
The Four Continents Figure Skating Championships
(4CC) is an annual figure skating competition. The International Skating Union established it in 1999 to provide skaters representing non-European countries with a similar competition to the much older European Figure Skating Championships and a chance to win prize money. The four continents of the event's name refer to the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Australia (four of the continents represented in the Olympic rings, omitting Europe). Skaters compete in the categories of men's singles, ladies singles, pairs, and ice dancing.
In 2010, the event will be held from January 25 through January 31 in Jeonju, South Korea. In 2011, the event will be held from February 15 through February 20 in Taipei, Chinese Taipei [1].
