Only local team I know of, Ice Wines, specifically call themselves  LADIES adult synchro team. Keep the boys away, I guess. Not much point in pursuing it at this point.... :-\

Possibly because they don't know any better and have never been approached.  At the very least you could ask them if you were interested.

What Skittl said.  :) 

Most teams are just used to only having women available and wanting to skate.  Our top team has a guy on it so it is very popular right now to have a token male. 

My team is competing against Ice Wine this weekend.  If I get a chance maybe I can ask if they'd be interested in a guy.

That would be mega cool synchkat.  8)

I think the "one guy" could be like a "hub" in those rolling wheel thingies... 88)

I will see what I can do.

Most teams are happy to have a guy.  They are typically stronger than women and are good anchors!  :)
