Senior Championships The 2022 Russian Championships were held in Saint Petersburg from 21 to 26 December 2021. Competitors qualified through international success or by competing in the Russian Cup series' senior-level events.
There are three separate basis for qualification. 1. Qualification based on receiving 2021–22 Grand Prix assignment. 2. Qualification based on qualifying for the 2021–22 Junior Grand Prix Final. However, skaters must have been born before July 1, 2007 to be qualified for the Russian senior championships. In addition, junior ice dance teams do not compete at senior national championships due to different program requirements between the junior and senior levels.
