Synchronized skating has grown in popularity around the world and Canada is considered a world-leader in this discipline. As a result of this increased popularity and demand from skaters across the Greater Hamilton Area, Steel City Synchro was formulated in the 2016/2017 season to provide skaters of all age and skill levels to participate in this team sport. In the 2018/2019 season, the Ancaster Affinity Adult teams joined the Steel City Synchro family of teams.
