General Information

Dancing at the NW Regional Closed Championship will begin at 10:00 am for all dancers.

The Highland Fling will be danced first from the youngest to oldest age groups followed by the Sword and Seann Triubhas. The Reels may be danced out of age group order if necessary to accommodate fill-ins.

The order of dance for the Highland Fling, Sword and Seann Triubhas will be determined by a separate draw for each dance in age groups with seven (7) or more entered.

The “first to enter last to dance rule” will apply only for the Reel.

The draw will be conducted by the NW Region of FUSTA.

Draw positions will be emailed to dancers and teachers no later than Wednesday, May 8, 2019.

Should a competitor withdraw after May 8, dancers in the affected class will move up one spot in the order of dance. Teachers of competitors whose order of dance has changed will be emailed a revised order of dance and will be asked to relay the information.

Competitors’ numbers will be at Dancer Check-In.

Spectator Admission fee is $10.00 for all day. Children under 5 are free. Tickets will be sold at the event (cash only) as well as online in advance.
