• What have we learned from this weekend? The pandemic has hit hard in older age groups, with 2 worlds cancelled it has made an easy decision fror lots of young ladies. I think it will take a few years for numbers to go back up again. Well done to all the older girls who have stuck with it. What hasnt changed is the favours done for some, especially in the U13, U17 & U19's over the weekend. (NT) -- Somethings never change!!!!!!!!, 10:26:01 11/22/21 Mon

      • plodder /ˈplɒdə/ Learn to pronounce noun a person who walks doggedly and slowly with heavy steps. "I am more of a plodder than a hiker" a person who works in a slow and persevering manner. (NT) -- If you know you know, 21:17:23 11/24/21 Wed

            • Yes I agree. The issues are less qualifiers if the standard isn’t great. (NT) -- But as has been stated, lots of decent wee ones coming up the ranks thank goodness., 20:25:00 11/26/21 Fri

• Excellent feis, venue was absolutely fabulous. I thought the judging was very fair, all dancers were made to feel valued. Grade dancers who are often overlooked by feis organisers felt as special as the champions. Other feis organisers should take note. We will definitely make a return visit next year. It's just sour grapes from the complainers. Let's celebrate that we can actually feis again! (NT) -- DanceMom, 23:25:07 08/30/21 Mon
  • Not sour grapes at all. Actually really enjoyed the feis but some of the judging was off. That’s the reality of Irish dancing. To not know this is a problem is very naive. (NT) -- Parent., 07:10:12 08/31/21 Tue
• Was it?? There was age groups where there was people on the podium who NEVER usually are. Its not sour grapes at all. You need to take a long hard look at results.

  • Agree. Kids in top positions deliberately dropped by some judges to affect their overall result. Happens all of the time. It’s sick and needs looked into. Happened for years though so strongly doubt nothing will ever be done about it. Ideal shame, ruins the world of Irish dancing. (NT) -- Parent, 11:13:55 08/31/21 Tue

• Will we have any dancers left over the age of 18, fewer and fewer each year at qualifiers. (NT) -- Its a sad day for Scottish dancing, 21:50:48 10/31/20 Sat
• I think at this moment in time, the likelyhood is that we too may go into a 2nd lockdown. Hopefully if we stick it out properly things may start to open back up again January and we can have a socially distanced qualifier. (NT) -- ☀️, 10:28:49 11/01/20 Sun
• Think a few will stick around , there’s one who can’t stop promoting herself you would think she was 12 the way she carry’s on , don’t mind promoting yourself but it same every day , give it a rest , she really does love herself , be like all the champions in Irish dancing stay humble ....

• Oh Dear. The haters are out! So teachers control parents now do they? Interesting concept. If your teacher controls you, you have to ask why you let that happen. Life is about choices. Anyway rules state they can travel, the feis is set up so it can meet local guidelines. Be more concerned about those little darlings who are posted all over Facebook not socially distanced! They are far more at risk. Just pointing that out to you all :). (NT) -- DM, 18:57:24 09/19/20 Sat
