In Yekaterinburg, parents of young figure skaters complained about mandatory fees.
In Yekaterinburg, parents of figure skaters said they are paying money to take part in qualifying competitions. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Sport of Russia issued an order in March 2025 prohibiting the collection of fees from children.
Yekaterinburg residents complained that the regional Figure Skating Federation is allegedly circumventing these restrictions and processing payments. They are recorded as "targeted contributions." This was reported by Public Chamber member Dmitry Chukreev.
"If you don't pay — you don't get into the qualifying competitions and the selection. Accordingly, you don't get into all‑Russian level competitions. What outrages parents is that the money has to be handed over in cash or transferred to an individual's bank card. They are given no reports on how the funds are spent," Chukreev wrote on his Telegram channel.
The document on entry fees lists prices starting at 3,500 rubles for a novice, while team members will have to pay up to 40,000 rubles. The civic activist called on the prosecutor's office to get involved in the case, writes the publication "KP‑Yekaterinburg."
Earlier in Nizhny Tagil, parents were banned from entering the training sessions to see their children.
