Differences in film

  • The minimum age to appear in the World Championships is 16. Several points in the plot involve characters participating in events they would actually have been too young to enter.
  • The U.S. Nationals does not use theatrical lighting for any of the programs, except the exhibition.
  • The short program and free skate are held on different days. A winner could not be declared after a single skate.
  • Music for the short program and long program must be instrumental.

• There is no checking in girls ice hockey, so many of the moves and "Hollywood's" mention of checking couldn't actually happen
