Acting head of the Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR) Anton Sikharulidze said that the awards for Russian tournaments in the upcoming season will not change compared to the previous one.
The 2024/25 season will begin in October this year.
— If we are talking about prize money, will this change in the coming season?
– No, we discussed it. We managed to save the prize money; Next season it will be the same as last season.
“They are huge”, adds the general director of the FFKKR Alexander Kogan .
— Last season there was a problem with Peter Gumennik and the composition of his program. Before the upcoming season, did you have any wishes or program recommendations?
— If we talk about Gumennik and his music, last season we didn’t give any recommendations. This is purely an initiative of the athlete, his coach, etc., and some third parties who have nothing to do with the Russian Figure Skating Federation. This season we also do not address the choice of music and the direction of programs by our athletes and coaches. It’s their prerogative, their creativity. “We, like you, will see this for the first time in September during the skating tests of the national team in St. Petersburg,” reports a correspondent, according to Sikharulidze’s words.
