18-20 To Be Split For Worlds So...

THIS HAS BEEN UPDATED ON SEPTEMBER 2/10.

MEN 18-20 IS NOT BEING SPLIT.

The ECRO (and all regions to be exact) is splitting the 18-20 solo LADIES championship categories to coincide with Worlds 2011. It was decided that the ladies 19-21 at Worlds is very large and should no longer be a double age group.

Here is the list of required dances that will appear in our syllabus when it goes out to teachers.

LU18 Reel HP, 6/8 set
LU19 SJ TJ, 2/4 or 4/4 set
LU20 Reel HP, 6/8 set
L20+ SJ TJ, 2/4 or 4/4 set

MU18 Reel TJ, 2/4 or 4/4 set
MU18-20 Reel TJ, 2/4 or 4/4 set
M20+ Reel HP, 6/8 set

Dancers or teachers who have been preparing for Men U19 should email Ryan Carroll ASAP at newfangle@yahoo.ca


Since the 18-20 LADIES group has been split up, each (new) age group will follow the same qualification formula as the younger age groups (5 for the first 20, then 1 for each ten or part of ten after than to a max of 15 not including WMHs who will be skipped). Only the MEN 18-20 and the LADIES 20+ categories will remain at 7 for 20 and 1 for 5 or part thereof.
