The ISU Challenger Series, introduced during the 2014/15 season as an ISU series of International Figure Skating Competitions (see ISU Communications 1858, 1894, 1928 and 1994) has proven to be successful and an excellent tool for many Skaters to get prepared for qualifying and competing in ISU Championships.
The ISU Council reiterates that being mindful that the ISU support towards the ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating is restricted to a limited group of organizing ISU Members, to a limited number of Skaters and to a limited number of Officials, the ISU Council agreed to financially support a restricted group of identified ISU Members traditionally staging International Figure Skating Competitions being part of the ISU Event Calendar.
This ISU support has the objective to ensure the proper and consistent organization and conduct of up to ten (10) International Competitions linked together within the ISU Challenger Series giving adequate opportunities for many Skaters to compete at the international senior level and earn World Standing Points and to increase the opportunity for Officials to officiate at an international level.
