The Haydenettes are a senior-level synchronized skating team representing The Skating Club of Boston in Norwood, Massachusetts, United States. They are five-time bronze medalists at the World Synchronized Skating Championships, earning the title in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2016. Formed in 1979 by Lynn Benson, the Haydenettes are the most successful synchronized skating team in U.S. history, with 30 U.S. National titles.[1]
Team
Members of the Haydenettes are required to have mastered advanced figure skating skills, including senior-level moves, gold-level pattern dances, and at least novice freestyle.[2][3] The Hayden teams draw skaters from around the world, though the teams are composed primarily of skaters from the greater Boston area. The Haydenettes practice at both the Hayden Recreation Center[4] in Lexington, Massachusetts, the New England Sports Center in Marlborough, Massachusetts, and The Skating Club of Boston in Norwood, Massachusetts. Synchronized skating is sanctioned by U. S. Figure Skating (USFS)[5][6] and the International Skating Union (ISU),[7] the two governing bodies for all skating events in the U.S. and internationally, respectively.

Hayden Synchro fields currently nine divisions in synchronized skating that compete under sanctioning by USFSA. Each of the teams appear in various ice shows, exhibitions and other events around the country.[1]
