There shall be a time and place provided for a post-competition critiquing session between the competitors and the judges. No aerials or lifts in Solo, Line, or Couple Dances. No drops, leans, tornillos, pedestals, or drags in Solo or Line Dances. Each judge must place all entries in each category. The winner of a particular category is the entry who is placed first by an absolute majority of judges.
Second place is the entry who is placed second by an absolute majority of judges.
The remaining places are allocated in a similiar manner. In order to be added to this list, an application form must be submitted by the potential judge or by the Competition Director on behalf of a potential judge. The potential Judge and the Competition Director will be notified of acceptance or declination and reasons of declination within 60 days. Allow at least 60 days for processing and notification. No judge may provide private coaching to any competitors during the Event, until the Dance Competitions are concluded.
