Career

Madison Hubbell started skating at age 5½.

She skates with her brother Keiffer Hubbell. They won the National silver medal on the novice level in 2006 behind sibling team Cathy Reed & Chris Reed. Making their junior international debut in the 2006-2007 season, they won a gold and a silver medal on the Junior Grand Prix, which qualified them for the Junior Grand Prix Final. At the Junior Grand Prix Final, they won the gold medal over training mates and rivals Emily Samuelson & Evan Bates. At the 2007 U.S. Figure Skating Championships, they won the silver medal, qualifying them for the 2007 World Junior Figure Skating Championships. At Junior Worlds, they placed sixth. However, due to the medical withdrawal of Samuelson & Bates, the United States dropped from three spots to the 2008 Junior Worlds down to two.

The Hubbells stayed Junior for the 2007-2008 season. However, they were forced to miss the 2007-2008 Junior Grand Prix season due to injury. They won their sectional competition to qualify for the 2008 United States Figure Skating Championships, where they won the gold medal on the Junior level. This qualified them for the 2008 World Junior Figure Skating Championships, their first international competition of the season, where they moved up a spot and placed fifth.

In the 2008-2009 season, the Hubbells competed again on the Junior Grand Prix. At the 2008-2009 ISU Junior Grand Prix event in Mexico City, Mexico, they won all three stages of the competition to win the gold overall.
