In reply to: Makes no sense!!! 's message, "Cape Cod Feis - why is U17 that had 11 competitors merged with 17 and over ? Wouldn’t it make more sense to merge U 16 with four with U17 ? You have senior ladies dancing with U17!" on 18:22:03 08/18/22 Thu

My daughter is U17 there were only 5 dancers registered. On Thursday we received this email:

Due to a dancer moving to open, we have combined the Preliminary Under 17 with the Preliminary 17 & over! The dance time will be 8AM on Saturday, 8/20th. The time is a change for the Preliminary U17 only but wanted to inform 17 & over dancers their competition is now combined.

See you at the Cape for your competition at 8AM!

[> [> Subject: Thank you for providing the very sensible explanation. The same people complaining about combined comps would have also complained if their prelim won in an uncombined comp of 4 and couldn't count the win for moving up. It's a wonder that anyone is willing to run a feis anymore.

Author: DM [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 15:27:12 08/21/22 Sun It makes sense in prelim but it made no sense to combine u17 open with over 17. Thankfully the feis committee corrected the issue and the competition was split into u17 and 17 and over right before they danced. Beautiful dancers in both groups ❤️ [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
