How does OFSC membership
work?
We would love for you to be a part of Ozark Figure Skating Club. However, you do not have to be a member of OFSC to compete. You do have to be a member of U.S. Figure Skating (USFS) to compete. If you are interested in being a member of USFS, please find that link here. If you want to become a member of our club, that link is here.

Where do we buy competition dresses and tights?
Buying a dress for a competition is an exciting process! We suggest ensuring that everything fits as it should and having it sparkle and shine just as your skater shines. There are many websites that you can order from, such as eBay, Etsy, and Mondor. We also have a Facebook consignment page.
The number of events that you/your skater has signed up to compete in should be the same number of practice ice sessions that should be purchased. For our local Pigtail Competition, please reach out to your/your skater's coach to determine how many you should purchase.
How many practice ice sessions do I buy?
Be sure to have all of your competition dresses ready. Don't forget an extra pair of tights. Please have your/your skaters Zuca or a garment bag. Along with makeup, haircare, and hair products, please ensure that skates are sharpened a week and a half before a competition.
