The French Figure Skating Championships (French: Championnat de France Elite) are held annually to crown the national champions of France. Skaters compete in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance at the senior, junior, and novice levels. The event is organized by the French Federation of Ice Sports, the sport's national governing body. The competition's results are among the criteria used to determine the teams to the World Championships, World Junior Championships, European Championships, and Winter Olympics.
Alain Giletti currently holds the record for the most number of French championships won in men's singles (at ten), while Andrée Brunet (née Joly) holds the record in women's singles (also at ten). She also holds the record in pair skating with her husband Pierre Brunet (at eleven).[1] Jean-Paul Guhel holds the record in ice dance (at nine, but with two different partners).
