How to get a permission letter so you can test at another club?
We understand that it is sometimes difficult to attend WFSC test sessions and that you must test outside of the club. To that end, you are required to have permission from WFSC for each test that you take. Each member in good standing is able to access a personalized permission letter by logging into Entryeeze account. NOTE: You may need to enable pop-ups to access the link.
Once you log you, go to “Manage my Family”, select the skater, and you should see a large “Download Permission Letter” button under Personal Information. A pdf will be downloaded to your computer.
