First of all, I must apologize to everyone. As in previous years, we held the IMSSC\u2019s regular general meeting \uff08IMSSC Session\uff09in 2026, but I forgot to post their minutes on the IMSSC website. I sincerely apologize.
It is now November 2026, so please allow me to recap the progress of IMSSC meetings to date.
This season marks my second year as IMSSC President. In January, when the MSG and MAG were held two weeks in a row, we held our first IMSSC 49A Session Meeting in Inzell just before the MAG. Following that, in May, we held the second IMSSC 49B Session meeting of the off-season. In late July, we hosted two ISU Council members for a progress meeting (IMSSC 49C). At the end of August, just before the start of the season, we held IMSSC 49D, and just the other day of this month at IMSSC 49E, we closed entry and confirmed the list of finalists (143 skaters) for the MIST in Lyon France. We are scheduling to hold one more meeting (will be called as IMSSC 49F) at the end of December to confirm the finalists for both the MSG and MAG.
Each meeting was wrapped up within two hours, and constructive discussions took place as we focused on the agenda items prepared in advance. The attached documents are the minutes from each meeting. I sincerely apologize for the delay in making this announcement to everyone.
Last but not least, I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to “everyone” who has contributed to the growth of the Masters Speed Skating. Happy Thanksgiving!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
