2023 World Junior Figure Skating Championships
The 2023 World Junior Figure Skating Championships will take place February 27 – March 5, 2023, in Calgary, AB, Canada, at the WinSport Arena at Canada Olympic Park .
“Junior Worlds” is an annual event that moves around the globe, showcasing the best young skaters from around the world, competing for the world junior titles in men’s, ladies’, pairs’, and ice dance. ISU Member nations select their entries according to their own criteria. Currently, skaters must be at least 13 years old, but not yet 19, before the previous 1 July, except for men competing in pair skating and ice dancing, where the age maximum is 21.
Skaters/couples participating in the 2022 ISU World Figure Skating Championships must have reached the following Minimum Total Elements Scores during the ongoing season (2022/23) or the immediately preceding seasons (2021/22):
| Minimum Technical Scores (TES) | ||
|---|---|---|
| Discipline | ||
| Men | 25.00 | 44.00 |
| Women | 25.00 | 40.00 |
| Pairs | 23.00 | 34.00 |
| Ice Dance | 24.00 | 38.00 |
The Minimum Technical Elements Score (not including Component Scores) is a Technical Score and must have been reached in an ISU recognized International Competition (as per Article 39, paragraph 7 of the ISU Constitution and Rule 107, paragraphs 1 to 10 of the ISU General Regulations) during the ongoing or immediately preceding season in both segments, Short Program/Rhythm Dance and Free Skating/Free Dance (See ISU Special Regulations Single & Pair Skating Ice Dance, Rule 378, paragraph 3). The required Minimum Total Elements Score for the Short Program/Rhythm Dance and the Free Skating/Free Dance segment to participate in the ISU World Junior Figure Skating Championships can only be obtained in International Junior Competitions.
While the Minimum Technical Elements Score must be reached separately in each segment (not a total of the two segments), the Minimum Technical Elements Score for each segment may be reached at different competitions. The Minimum Technical Elements Score must be reached 21 (twenty-one) days before the first day (first official practice day) of the Championships concerned (same as entry deadline).
