The team rosters 16-24 student-athletes with extensive synchronized and figure skating experience and outstanding academic credentials. All skaters must be enrolled in a college or degree program as full-time students and have passed the Bronze Skating Skills test (née Juvenile Moves-in-the-Field); however, most on our team have passed their Gold Skating Skills (Senior Moves-in-the-Field) test.

The U-M Collegiate Team is a continual powerhouse in the fast-growing collegiate division, medaling in past U.S. Synchronized Skating National Championships in a field of over 12 teams. The team practices at least three times a week plus additional off-ice practices and workouts. Practices continue through the National Championship.
