Everyone at Major League Figure Skating wishes Craig a speedy recovery. We will update www.MLFSKating.com we receive more information on Craig.

WIshes for a speedy recovery.

This is the first time I've really read up on MLFS. Interesting concept, and one that seems a lot more fun for the competitors. I have to say seeing Tonia K's name on the list really garnered more interest for me. Wish my folks were in Florida this summer, I'd take a quick trip to Lakeland to watch.

To jrubin,
That is too bad, about craig. Will someone be taking his place? I heard Alibel Alergre might skate is this true? She is a beautiful skater and would be fun to watch.

Yes, it sounds interesting. I am going to request that Friday off from work and try to check it out, because it is only about an hour and a half drive from me.
Is anyone else planning on attending?

[jrubinMLFS]

Yes, Alibel Alegre the 2003 Ladies Silver Medalilst from Spain will make her professional debut at the competition. Alibel will be be replacing Nikki Wards spot on Fuzion being captained by Scott Davis.

Wonderful, I enjoy watching Alibel skate, she is a great team member for Scott to have! Looking forward to this event. I understand she is trying out with a few professional shows this summer, too. She reminds you a little of a pretty female version of John Curry.
Which day will she competing on?

[jrubinMLFS]

All teams will skate in at least one match on both days. Friday matches will be the result of a seeding round that will take place on Thursday and will not be announced until Thursday night. Saturday matches are completely dependent on Friday's results. Depending on the results of the seeding, two of the teams that skate on Friday will compete in two matches that day

Sounds like an interesting event. I didn't know Jeff Langdon was skating - I hope he does awesome! He's been a favourite for a long time.

Get well soon Craig Heath.
