Before each competition
All competitors are recommended to be in the Ballroom at least 15 minutes before their division is scheduled to start. The comp schedule is very tight, so please don’t be late. If you are not present for the lineup, you will not be allowed to compete! For all WSDC Jack n Jill prelims, please be waiting in the competitor’s area behind the elevators right outside the Ballroom. Please pay attention to staff instructions. Our staff will line you up in the correct order.
Competitor Numbers (BIB)
Must be pinned at all four corners and worn, on your back, hips or bottom. Do NOT wear on your arms or legs. Keep your BIB number on for the duration of the competition or as otherwise instructed by MC, organiser and/or Chief judge. In the preliminary rounds of Jack n Jill Divisions both leaders and followers wear their own distinctive numbers. Also, since our bibs are made of polyester fabric and reusable, it would be of great help if you can return them to the registration booth once you are done.
During competition
Check your position while standing in line (try to remember who is next to you). Please stay focused on the comp information given by our MC for any changes that may occur during the competitions When you are called out for your division, walk onto the dance floor with your marshalling staff and wait for the MC’s instructions.
Results
After the preliminary rounds, the list of semifinalists and finalists for each division will be posted in the line-up area and on the FB event page. It is each and every competitors responsibility to check if you made semi-finals and/or finals of any of your divisions. If you are called out and you are not in place, your spot will be given to the first alternate ready to go. Winners and placements will be announced during the Awards Ceremony on Saturday. Competition results will be published after the event.
Last but not least, don't forget to have fun. Good luck!
