Dear Figure Skating Friends,

On behalf of the whole Czech Figure Skating Association and the Organizing Committee of the ISU Junior Grand Prix of Figure skating Final 2005/2006, let me welcome you to the web sites established on the occasion of holding this significant international competition from November 24^th till November 27^th, 2005.

I would like to express my thanks to the International Skating Union for believing in abilities of the Czech Figure Skating Association when allotting the Final to the Czech Republic and the City of Ostrava. It is really a great honor and pleasure for all Organizing Committee members to welcome representatives of the ISU, appointed Officials, Referees, Technical Controllers, Technical Specialists, competitors, judges, coaches and other members of the teams to the capital city of the Moravian-Silesian Region.

All the Organizing Committee members are proud of getting a chance to host the top junior skaters and they are going to prepare the best possible conditions enabling the competitors to present great performances.

These web sites have been established to inform you not only about the environments, program and results of the JGP Final, but also about other important events interesting for both figure skating experts and the audience. Also, the city of Ostrava will be introduced to you here. Many of the skating family members already visited the city of Ostrava on the occasion of a Senior Figure Skating competition Czech Skate 1994, 1995 and 1997, a Junior Figure Skating competition of the same name which was held as a Junior Grand Prix in 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2003 or, of course, during World Junior FS Championships in 2003.

Dear friends, whichever part of the world you are from, welcome to the Czech Republic and welcome to the city of Ostrava.

Stanislav Zidek
President of the Organizing Committee
ISU Junior Grand Prix of Figure Skating Final 2005/2006
