New Zealand Figure Skating Championships

The New Zealand Figure Skating Championships are held annually to crown the national champions of New Zealand. Skaters compete in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance at the senior, junior, and novice levels, although not every discipline is held every year due to a lack of participants. The event is organized by the New Zealand Ice Figure Skating Association, the sport's national governing body.
