competition breakdown
Dancers will dance these days in a typical round-robin competition style with some differences. We start the competition with Solos. The competition then continues with Duets/Trios, followed by Groups and lastly our Novice and Pre-Competitive categories.
We aim to have Mini, Junior and Intermediate age divisions dance in the first half of each day, followed by Senior dancers in the evenings. This is very much dictated by the number and type of entries received at each location and cannot be maintained at all times.
Please note that the round robin stage can continue into Day Four under certain circumstances. The top Mini/Junior, Intermediate and Senior Solo, Duet/Trio and Group/Line/Extended Line and the Novice/Pre-Competitive Group from each studio will be announced on Day Three or Day Four.
Finalists from each studio will perform on this day! A typical schedule of MOVE Finals is as follows:
Mini/Junior + Intermediate + Senior Solo Finals
Mini/Junior + Intermediate + Senior Duet/Trio Finals
Novice/Pre-Competitive Group Finals
Mini/Junior + Intermediate + Senior Group/Line/Extended Line Finals
(unless otherwise stated by MOVE).
Our Final Adjudication will follow MOVE Finals where the following are announced and presented to dancers:
Scholarships
Highest Scoring Discipline Awards
Adjudicator Choice Awards
MOVE Finals Champions
