The1948European Figure Skating Championships were held inPrague,Czechoslovakia. Elite senior-levelfigure skaters from EuropeanISU member nations, in addition to theUnited States andCanada, competed for the title of European Champion in the disciplines ofmen's singles,[1]ladies' singles,[2] andpair skating.[3]
Because North Americans were allowed to participate, the best European single skaters,Eva Pawlik of Austria andHans Gerschwiler of Switzerland, were awarded only the European Silver Medals. That was the reason the International Skating Union restricted the 1949 Europeans and all the following European Championships to European skaters.Dick Button is the only winner from outside Europe in men's singles.Barbara Ann Scott is the only winner from outside Europe in ladies' singles, this was her second title.
