ISU Junior Grand Prix in Poland explained

ISU Junior Grand Prix in Poland
Comptype:	ISU Junior Grand Prix

The ISU Junior Grand Prix in Poland is an international figure skating competition. Sanctioned by the International Skating Union, it is periodically held in the autumn as part of the Junior Grand Prix (JGP) series. Medals may be awarded in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance.

When held in Gdańsk, the qualifying event is usually known as the Baltic Cup. It may also be called the Toruń Cup or Copernicus Stars when held in Toruń. The 2023 edition held in Gdańsk went under the official name PGE Solidarity Cup, referring to the main sponsor PGE and the Solidarność movement that originated in Gdańsk.

The Croatian Skating Federation was scheduled to host the fifth competition of the 2022 JGP in Zagreb, but cancelled the event due to logistical reasons.^[1] The Fédération Française des Sports de Glace initially volunteered to host two separate JGP events. However, on July 29, 2022, the ISU announced that France would no longer host the event in Grenoble as planned. The event was reallocated to the Polish Figure Skating Association, which hosted two back-to-back JGP events in Gdańsk instead.^[2]
