2026 Cranberry Cup International: General Info and Pregame Chat

Still no entrylist? ISU is worse than last season

I emailed them. And I was told the list would be up by Monday. And it didn't happen. So upsetting

On the Skating Club of Boston, the entries are listed. Only Junior girls have a lot of entries. The ticket prices are available now, very inexpensive.

Yeah the field is not very impressive in seniors this year

Kind of disappointing. And it is a Challenger,so I am a bit surprised.

 

[DemTuppesSeine]

Yeah me too

I thought the AINs would show up because they need ranking points as soon as possible. Maybe it was a too short notice for them

I also have to say the senior men are not the same as the senior men we have seen in the past.

On the plus side, Canadians.

I was also wondering about the absence of AIN athletes. Thought they'd take every chance to get high on the replacement lists.

Not sure if they could get visa in such a short time and also possibly seniors are waiting for the AIN status approval/denial.
ETA: Entries had to be submitted by Jul 17th, I don't think seniors were officially approved by then, they are probably not rn yet.

I think I read something about Putins latest idea that Russians need a visa to LEAVE Russia and they can only get it for "friendly countries" since he doesn't like USA EU or NATO much it could be a resaon we don't see AINs in USA. But Petr Gummenik has been in USA for months and the Russian tennisplayers don't have visa problems either

The insider scoop is that Russian senior participation will start with Kinoshita Cup (and the 3 challengers that follow it) where it is easy to obtain a visa, travel is easier and the AIN statuses is anticipated to be confirmed.

Signing the AIN form is enough to entry. They don't need to wait.
