Without officials, Skate New Brunswick skaters would not be able to compete or have test days in our province. There are many types of Officials, each donating countless hours and expertise to the sport.
Are you a former skater looking for a meaningful way to stay involved in skating? Are you a parent or former coach that would like to see another side of the sport?
