Theatre on Ice is the United States Figure Skating Association's newest competitive figure skating event.  Teams are judged, not just on dramatic performance, but also on the quality of their skating both as individuals and as a team.  Each year the number of teams entering the competition has grown and the quality of the programs, props, and standards of skating have increased dramatically.  The 2006/7 team consisted of 24 skaters ranging in age from 8 to 17, and was coached by Shanyn Vallon and Dorothy Kowalczk.  Shanyn is a PSA Master Rated National and International Choreographer. Former featured performer of Ice Capades and Holiday on Ice. World National & Junior Olympic Choreographer. Figure Skating Professional.

HITS trains at the Sugar Land Ice & Sports Center.  In addition to performing at competitive events, the team performs at exhibitions throughout the season. Watch this page for information on where the team will be performing.

HITS is a 501c3 organization and a member of US Figure Skating Association.  The team is currently seeking sponsors for the 2007/8 season.  Membership recruitment begins in January.
