This medal has a silver lining

Sometimes it’s the Winchester Skating Club coaches bringing home the medals!

On May 16, 2024, Coach Chantal Lewis competed her free skate program at the International Adult Figure Skating Competition in Oberstdorf, Germany. She won silver in a group of 28 Bronze Level III skaters.

This followed her earlier success when she placed 10th out of 20 skaters competing their artistic programs, on May 12.

Lewis has been with the WSC for over a decade, coaching everything from the club’s learn to skate program to StarSkate figure skaters. The club added an adult program to its session line up, inspired in part by Lewis’ own participation in a sport that has no age limits.

The WSC is pleased to have coaches like Lewis who will encourage our athletes to keep lacing up their skates for years to come.
