The Haydenettes are a senior-level synchronized skating team representing The Skating Club of Boston in Norwood, Massachusetts, United States. They are the two-time silver medalists (2024, 2026) and six-time bronze medalists (2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2016 and 2025) at the World Synchronized Skating Championships. Formed in 1979 by Lynn Benson, the Haydenettes are the most successful synchronized skating team in U.S. history, with 33 U.S. National titles.

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. 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 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) and the International Skating Union (ISU), the two governing bodies for all skating events in the U.S. and internationally, respectively.

Coaches

The Haydenettes are coached by Saga Krantz and assistant coaches Ashley Tomich and Lee Chandler.

Practice

The Haydenettes practice for about 10 hours on ice per week during the school year, with an average practice length for the year of 16 hours per week. Additionally, the Haydenettes hold at least three off-ice practices per week. Prior to a competition, the team practice time is increased to 18 hours per week.

Programs

Competitive highlights

The Haydenettes are 33-time National champions, 26-time ISU World Championship competitors, and eight-time ISU World Medalists. The Haydenettes have represented the U.S. in every World Championship since the International Skating Union (ISU) sanctioned the first World Championship event in 2000. The team's success has earned it the nickname "The Haydenettes Dynasty."

During 2003, the Haydenettes led a contingent of three teams to France where they won The French Cup for the U.S. In addition, the United States contingent won The Nations Cup, awarded to the highest scoring country in this competition. Their awards include the Bronze medal in the 2005 Prague Cup and the Silver medal in the 2004 Neuchâtel Trophy in Switzerland.

The Haydenettes were the 2010 national champions with a score of 231.14, the highest-ever posted to date at the U.S. Synchronized Skating Championships by nearly 18 points. They went on to win the bronze medal at the World Championships held in Colorado Springs, Colorado in 2010. The team won their second bronze at the 2011 World Championships in Helsinki, Finland. They earned their third World bronze in 2012 in Gothenburg and fourth consecutive World bronze in Boston in 2013.
