Mission StatementOxford Skating Club is a non-profit organization where all figure skaters, recreational to competitive are encouraged to meet their individual skating goals. OSC promotes sportsmanship and creates opportunities to develop skaters to their fullest potential in a positive and supportive environment. |
For years, precision skating was a part of the Oxford Skating Club (OSC), with groups formed for ice shows and exhibition performances. In 1992, OSC pursued the United States Figure Skating Association (USFS) track in precision competition. In 1993, the Oxford Ice Crystals participated in the Wyandotte Challenge and earned a respectable fourth place. In 1994, the Intermediate Team placed first in the Silver Round at the Midwestern Precision Championships in Milwaukee. The Ice Crystals Intermediate Team went to Midwesterns in 1995 and qualified for the Gold Round and placed eighth. In 1997, our Intermediate Team qualified for the U.S. Precision Team Nationals. The Preliminary team placed fourth at the 1999 Midwestern Sectionals. The term "precision" was officially replaced with "synchronized" in 1999 by the USFS. More recently, the 2001 Intermediate Team placed second at the Colonial Classic in Boston and placed sixth in the Final Round at the Midwestern Sectionals. In 2002 at the Midwestern Sectionals, the Junior Classic team placed second and in 2003 placed into the final round. In 2003 and 2004 at Midwestern Sectionals, the Teen Intro team placed into the final round, as did the 2005-06 Open Jr. and Open Juv. teams. The USFS Beginner team had a great 2005-06 season with three 1st places in this new USFS division. OSC continues to work in close association with the Goggin Ice Center staff and currently uses its facilities.
