The Olympic Figure Skating Team event gives skaters and couples from the ten strongest all-rounded figure skating nations, the unique opportunity to compete as a team, with the goal of coming out on top as the number one skating nation in the World. Each “Team” in the event consists of ONE (1) Man, ONE (1) Woman, ONE Pair (1M+1F=2), and ONE Ice Dance Couple (1M+1F=2) for a total of SIX (6) athletes. Each athlete must be qualified in the Individual Competitions (With the exception of “Additional Quota” Skaters). For a nation to be eligible to compete in the Figure Skating Team Event, that nation must be have Qualified skaters/couples in at least THREE different Olympic Figure Skating disciplines (Men's Singles, Ladies' Singles, Pairs, Ice Dancing).
A nation qualifies for the Figure Skating Team Event by earning “Qualification Points,” through ISU Championships, and ISU Grand Prix Events. These Qualification points are essentially world ranking points. World Ranking Points are awarded to Skaters/Couples who qualify for the free skate at an ISU championship, and top 8 finishes at Grand Prix events (Top 10 for Junior and Top 6 for the Senior Grand Prix Final. Junior Grand Prix Final results do not count towards the team event qualification). Each nation has the opportunity to earn qualification points in two stages.
1. The first stage is the 2016/17 ISU Championships Season (2017 World Figure Skating Championships, 2017 European Figure Skating Championships, 2017 Four Continents Figure Skating Championships, 2017 World Junior Figure Skating Championships)
2. The second stage will be the 2017/18 ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating Series (2017/18 Senior Grand Prix Series & Grand Prix Final, and 2017/18 Junior Grand Prix Series [Junior Grand Prix Final not counted]).
Ranking points earned at the 2017-8 Junior Grand Prix Final, 2017-18 Senior Internationals, 2017 ISU Challenger Series Events CANNOT count towards team event qualification.
Qualification Points
At each stage, the points from the results of a same nation's (1) Man, (1) Woman, (1) Pair Team, and (1) Ice Dance couple are taken and combined to form a total qualification score (This makes 4 scores each stage and 8 scores are taken overall). The points that contribute to the score are:
The points earned by the nation's Skater/Couple at the highest level event. E.g. If points were earned at Four Continents and Worlds, the points earned at worlds will count, even if the amount of points earned at Four Continents was more than Worlds, because Worlds is a higher level event.
