I haven't found many details yet (the HNSF has a calendar of events on its page but, surprisingly, in December it does not mention the 4NC), only the ones published on the website of the Polish Association of Figure Skating:

- Announcement
- Polish Ladies that qualified to the 4NC:

1. Elżbieta Gabryszak
2. Oliwia Rzepel
3. Natalia Lerka​

- Polish Men that qualified to the 4NC:

1. Igor Reznichenko
2. Krzysztof Gala
3. Łukasz Kędzierski
4. Eryk Matysiak
5. Miłosz Witkowski
6. Olgierd Febbi​

There's no official document regarding pairs or ice dance, but in ice dance I'm sure we'll see Natalia Kaliszek/Maksym Spodyriev and Justyna Plutowska/Jeremie Flemin. As far as Polish pairs are concerned, with shame I have to admit that I don't know if we have any decent couple and I've no idea who will represent Poland in the competition. Fortunately, once the entry lists are published, we'll find out.

If you have any news regarding Czech, Slovak and Hungarian participants, please share it here. I hope soon some sort of the event website will be available.

As far as Polish pairs are concerned, with shame I have to admit that I don't know if we have any decent couple and I've no idea who will represent Poland in the competition. Fortunately, once the entry lists are published, we'll find out.

I've just found out the list of the Polish National FS Team and it results there are no single pair. What a pity that the discipline with the best results in Polish figure skating (Dorota Zagorska/Mariusz Siudek won European and Worlds medals) has no participants

Any updates on Hungary’s entries? Especially the ladies? Thanks in advance. x

You know who I was just thinking about at this Championships last year, and whose names I can't remember, but there were 2 Czech Republic Dance teams, 1 trained at IDE with Carol Lane and the other in Montreal, and both had a Canadian lady of Czech descent. Both must have retired....?

Just looked up the Entries / Results Page, and there was only one Czech entry last year:

Cortney MANSOUR / Michal CESKA

I think it was the year before that you were thinking of, when they were joined by:

Nicole KUZMICH / Alexandr SINICYN

For both partnerships, their ISU Bio has not been updated since last season. So, I've no idea if any of them are still competing or not.

While I'm here, for those that are interested, this will be the opening round of the Nationals Predictions Game.

They were indeed the 2 couples I was thinking of, thank you. :agree:

 

[DSQ]

Mansour/Ceska seem to be coaching out of Detroit. I hope they compete next season at least.

I thought they retired.

 

[DSQ]

I thought so too but when I looked it up to confirm it I couldn’t find any evidence.

 

[Mohacz]

HNSF finally created on its webpage a section dedicated to the Championships. So far there is no list of participants, but I hope soon they'll include it. The deadline to provide entry form for skaters was 22 November, so in any moment more details may be expected.

I finally got some kind of confirmation that Kuzmichova & Sinicyn are done. A poster said he/she spoke with one of them (him, I think) personally and that the team member said they decided not to continue when they were not selected for the Olympics.

Slovak team announced on Facebook

Nicole Rajicova is scheduled to be there We had no news from her since she withdrew from the GP serie.

 

[La Rhumba]

Any news of a stream? I'm expecting it to be, as this 4 Nationals has the past couple of years been live on YouTube.

I think there will be live stream. I check the website several times a day to see if the entries and more details are uploaded, but until now there's little news. I hope this week we'll know more since the championships are about to start.

Oh, they've just uploaded the preliminary time schedule:

[Mohacz]

I wonder if Michal Brezina is going to skate at the 4 Nationals. He would be a shining star among all the competitors

 

[Mohacz]

Polish representation has increased in comparison with the original announcement. Yesterday the Polish Figure Skating Association added 3 more Ladies and 2 Men and also published the ice dance couples that will compete at 4 Nationals:

Natalia KALISZEK / Maksym SPODYRIEV
Justyna PLUTOWSKA / Jeremie FLEMIN
Jenna HERTENSTEIN / Damian BINKOWSKI

No Brezina in Men. In Ladies we have Nicole Rajicova, Ivet Toth, Eliska Brezinova and Michaela Lucie Hanzlikova. Only 6 couples in ice dance (3 of which from Poland and 3 from Hungary) and no representation in senior Pairs.

I guess Brezina does not have to go since he is just off the GPF. Still a good line-up. Hoping to go on Saturday. I am excited for the ice-dance in particular.
