Welcome to the 2026 Charles Gorman Memorial Speed Skating Competition!
The Saint John Amateur Speed Skating Club is thrilled to welcome skaters, coaches, and families to the Charles Gorman Arena this Saturday, January 17th. This sanctioned event continues our long-standing tradition of fast ice and friendly competition in the heart of Saint John.
Whether you are a seasoned racer or an emerging talent competing in our ability-based divisions, we are excited to have you join us for a full day of action on the 85m and 100m tracks.
Registration is now open!!
We are thrilled to announce that registration is officially open for another exciting season of speed skating in Saint John! We have programs for all ages and skill levels, from beginners to competitive racers.
This season, we’ve made a key change based on your feedback: our ‘Learn to Skate’ program has been moved to Tuesday and Thursday evenings. This new schedule will make it even easier for new skaters to discover the thrill of speed skating!

We can’t wait to welcome you back to the rink!
Fall Registration coming soon
Exciting news, our Learn to Skate program will be offered on new days and times.
We are working with the city to officially finalize the last few things; however, we are pleased to announce that our Learn to Skate program will now run Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Starting at 1830 on October 14, 2025.
Also new to this year, some of our groups will be running in tandem with each other starting at 1900.
This will allow us to have more coaches on the ice and offer the mentorship older skaters provide to younger skaters by watching what they do on the ice. We will also be able to offer more lessons over the season. No time lost due to tournaments over the weekend.
We look forward to sharing all the details as soon as we can and having registration open once those details are finalized.
