Local skaters Ethan Xiao and Addisyn Veccia, have qualified for the looming
2024-2025 Provincial Championships, being held this Friday through Sunday,
at the Stratford Rotary Complex.
Xiao and Veccia are two of more than 500 skaters from across the province who
will take part.
This event features the best in the Province in Synchro (Star 6 & 8); as
well as Singles, Pairs, Ice Dance and Artistic categories.
Xiao, who turns 18 this week, secured his spot after winning the Gold Men’s
event this past January at the Provincial Series LaSalle event.
Veccia, 17, secured her spot after the Provincial Series concluded last month. She will compete in the Star 10 Ladies category this weekend.
Teghan Meredith, 15, is patiently waiting for a call up to compete in Star 5
Ladies, as she is currently listed as an alternate for the event. Meredith
has been holding onto hope, since December, when she had a nearly perfect
skate at the Provincial Series Stratford Event.
Xiao and Meredith train at the Chatham Skating Club, while Veccia trains in Ridgetown, Brantford and Chatham.
