Subject: U20 at the Os
Author: new to age group [Edit]	Date Posted: 08:20:25 11/16/09 Mon I noticed last year that everyone in the U20 group danced all 3 rounds because of the small number of competitors. Is this always the case, and if so, what is # of competitors needed to dance 2 rounds, then recall, vs. everyone dancing all 3? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

I believe the "magic number" is somewhere around 20 competitors (give or take) (NT) -- Good Luck!, 08:32:15 11/16/09 Mon Twenty or less- everyone does all 3 rounds; more than twenty, 2 rounds with recall for the third round. Last year in the U20 group there were 20 dancers, 1 was injured during the comp and was unable to finish. (NT) -- dancer, 14:49:15 11/16/09 Mon thank you for the info. sorry to hear about last year. hope you are better. (NT) -- thanks, 15:29:31 11/16/09 Mon Oops... I wasn't injured... I typed the number one instaed of writing it out so it looks like "I" was injured. I was fine, it was another dancer that was injured. Sorry for the confusion, but thanks for the well wishes. Hopefully the injured dancer will see them too! (NT) -- dancer, 20:59:11 11/16/09 Mon I broke my foot in the light round and haven't been able to dance since. That was the worst foot injury I ever had. Tried to come back too soon after nasty auto accident. Good Luck to everyone in U20 this weekend. John-Happy 25th Anniversary-I miss you.

Author: New to solo's @ NE Oireachtas [Edit]	Date Posted: 03:26:54 11/19/09 Thu My doughter is dancing solo's for the first time at the NEO.

[ Post a Reply to This Message ]
Replies:
Solo dances are 2 at a time though younger dancers (U12 and under? - someone pls correct me), dance 3 at a time. Trad sets are at least 2 if not 3 a time. My dd danced alone in her trad set last year only because there were an odd # and she was the last one. Sorry I can't be more specific but someone else will be... (NT) -- good luck to your dd, 06:30:21 11/19/09 Thu Oops, I'm sorry. Totally misread your question. I thought you meant the Trad set class that all ages do (when not doing solos). If your dd recalls after the hard and soft round to do her trad set, then I assume she is in the younger age group and I believe it's 2 at a time. (NT) -- some help correct me please, 06:37:15 11/19/09 Thu U12 and below danced 3 at a time for hard; 2 at a time for light; sets are solo (NT) -- in the past, 09:12:19 11/19/09 Thu I actually think hardshoes is done 3 at a time for all ages under 16 (NT) -- Mom, 12:47:15 11/19/09 Thu Dd was U15 last year and the 1st two rounds were 2 at a time.

Due to the response of the dance music timing tutorial I offered a few weeks ago, Diddlyi magazine is featuring a series on the topic! I'm addressing one tune type at a time with a timing diagram and a shortened narrative to fit the format. The first article, for which help is most frequently requested, is about understanding slip jigs. No knowledge of music reading or music time signatures is required to understand the timing. The website is www.mag.diddlyi.com. Anyone who wants the 15-page tutorial can send me an email at mark@markarringtonmusic.com
