About IFSC
The Iceworld Figure Skating Club Inc. is a not-for-profit sporting organisation, established when the Iceworld Olympic Ice Rink opened in 1979 and was later incorporated in 2011.
​Members of IFSC range from beginners (Aussie Skate) through to champions of all ages and can participate in singles figure skating, pairs and ice dance.
​
Many of our skaters have reached levels qualifying them to represent Queensland and Australia in National and International competitions. Some skaters have also been chosen to participate in performances such as The Andrei Rieu Concert Tour in Australia and the Disney On Ice pre-show.
​
Our members are part of a close knit and vibrant community and we welcome new members of all ages and skating abilities. Please contact us to find out more or join the IFSC now!
