Career



For France


Boyadji began skating at the age of 7½ after watching Philippe Candeloro on television.[1] As a competitor in men's singles, he was coached by Diana Skotnická in Courbevoie and by Sylvain Privé.[2][3] He represented France at five ISU Junior Grand Prix events and the 2009 Winter Universiade.

Boyadji competed with Camille Mendoza for France in the 2011–12 season. They finished 16th at the 2012 World Junior Championships in Minsk, Belarus. The pair trained in Paris and Montreal under Vivien Rolland and Diana Skotnická.[4]


Partnership with Fancy


Boyadji teamed up with British skater Amani Fancy in spring 2013.[5][6] After winning the 2014 British national title, they were sent to the 2014 European Championships in Budapest, where they placed 15th. The pair finished 18th at the 2014 World Championships in Saitama, Japan.

Following an elbow surgery in November 2014, the pair was unable to compete at the 2015 British Championships. They were sent to the 2015 European Championships in Stockholm, where they placed 12th. The pair finished 16th at the 2015 World Championships in Shanghai.

Fancy/Boyadji won the bronze medal at the 2015 CS Tallinn Trophy and placed 8th at a Grand Prix event, the 2015 NHK Trophy, as well as winning their second national title. In January 2016, they announced the end of their partnership,[7] withdrawing from both the 2016 European and 2016 World Championships.


Partnership with Jones


Boyadji and Zoe Jones agreed to form a pair skating partnership following a tryout in April 2016.[7][8] They train at the Better Link Centre in Swindon.[9] Their first competition was the 2016 CS Ondrej Nepela Memorial, where they finished 6th.
