2025–26 ISU Junior Grand Prix

The 2025–26 ISU Junior Grand Prix is a series of junior international competitions organized by the International Skating Union that will be held from August 2025 through December 2025. It is the junior-level complement to the 2025–26 ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating. Medals will be awarded in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance. Skaters will earn points based on their placement at each event, and the top six in each discipline will qualify to compete at the 2025–26 Junior Grand Prix Final in Nagoya, Japan.^[1]

The ISU Junior Grand Prix of Figure Skating (JGP) was established by the International Skating Union (ISU) in 1997 and consists of a series of seven international figure skating competitions exclusively for junior-level skaters. The locations of the Junior Grand Prix events change every year. While all seven competitions feature the men's, women's, and ice dance events, only four competitions each season feature the pairs event. This season, the series will include the following events.^[1]

Skaters are eligible to compete on the junior-level circuit if they are at least 13 years old before July 1 of the respective season, and if they have not yet turned 19 (for single skaters, and females in ice dance and pair skating) or 21 (for males in ice dance and pair skating).^[10] Competitors are chosen by their respective skating federations. The number of entries allotted to each ISU member nation in each discipline is determined by their results at the prior 2025 World Junior Figure Skating Championships.^[11]

• If not listed above, one entry in two events is allowed.
• Host federations may enter up to three spots per discipline.

• If not listed above, one entry in three events is allowed.
• Host federations have an unlimited number of entries.

At each event, skaters earn points toward qualification for the Junior Grand Prix Final. Following the seventh event, the top six highest-scoring skaters/teams advance to the Final. The points earned per placement are as follows:

There are seven tie-breakers in cases of a tie in overall points:

1. Highest placement at an event. If a skater placed 1st and 3rd, the tiebreaker is the 1st place, and that beats a skater who placed 2nd in both events.
2. Highest combined total scores in both events. If a skater earned 200 points at one event and 250 at a second, that skater would win in the second tie-break over a skater who earned 200 points at one event and 150 at another.
3. Participated in two events.
4. Highest combined scores in the free skating/free dance portion of both events.
5. Highest individual score in the free skating/free dance portion from one event.
6. Highest combined scores in the short program/short dance of both events.
7. Highest number of total participants at the events.

If a tie remains, it is considered unbreakable and the tied skaters all advanced to the Junior Grand Prix Final.
