Plot

Katelin Kingsford, a talented young teenage figure skater, dreams of being a champion. During one of her competitions, she is discovered by a famous Russian skating coach, Natasha Goberman. However, Natasha coaches at an expensive boarding school and Katelin's parents cannot afford to send her there. To help Katelin with the expenses, Natasha convinces the girls hockey team coach to give the last hockey scholarship to Katelin so she can train at the boarding school. Katelin is overjoyed and excited to be taught by Natasha but quickly finds balancing hockey practice, skate club practice, and her homework to be difficult. Spencer, a student assistant coach, constantly ridicules her, and her fellow skaters ostracize her. However, Katelin finds some consolation in her roommate, Amy 'Hollywood' Henderson, a fellow hockey player. Katelin faces several obstacles and bullying in her new life, due to which Katelin loses a private training session with one of her idols, Kristi Yamaguchi, causing Natasha to feel great disappointment towards Katelin. After the hockey team's hostility and her failing grades, she returns home to find her stuff packed. Feeling unwanted, Katelin grabs a box of her ice skating things and runs out of the house. After talking with her mother, Katelin decides not to quit and returns to school. Katelin's grades gradually improve, while she continues to train for hockey and figure skating alone, much to Spencer's admiration. Later in the season, Katelin helps her team win and progress to the finals. When Katelin realizes that the hockey finals fall on the same day as the Senior Nationals, an event that scouts for potential Olympic figure skaters, she decides to attend the hockey game, much to Spencer's disbelief. They lose the finals by one goal, though the team are pleased they made it to the final regardless. Spencer gathers all of Katelin's figure skating equipment and takes her to the Senior Nationals, but her suitcase falls open in front of the hockey team, exposing her as a 'twirl girl'. While getting ready, Katelin realizes that one of her skates is missing, and Natasha gives her her hockey skates instead. At the beginning of her skating routine, Katelin falls before her hockey team arrives with her missing skate. After completing her routine, the judges announce that Katelin has made it into the US Olympic team.
