Finlandia Trophy Withdrawal

[johnkerr]

Hi guys,

Just thought I would let you all know that Sinead and I have had to withdraw from the Finlandia Trophy this weekend

Sinead suffered a subluxation of the shoulder in practice and there was no way that she was going to be able to recover in time. We have also withdrawn from 'Riverdance on Ice' which we were supposed to be performing in next week.

We are hopeful that if Sinead's recovery goes well we will be able to participate in Skate Canada next month.

Everyone keep your fingers crossed.

All the best, John

I didn't know where to put this, but it's related to the sad news above, so...

From the new article on icenetwork about "2010 Weiss Foundation Show":

Great Britain's Olympic ice dancing team of Sinead Kerr and John Kerr performed in the show. Sinead is recovering from a right shoulder injury which she injured while practicing the Golden Waltz. She suffered the injury the day before they had planned to leave to compete in the Finlandia Trophy and withdrew from the event, which was held Oct. 8-10. They looked healthy at the benefit show and she performed the team's trademark move where she lifts him. Still, John said he has hold his sister differently in the Golden Waltz because she can't pull her right shoulder back too far. They plan to compete at Skate Canada this weekend in Kingston, Ont.
