Subject: Can an adult dancer dance in the overs in a feis if there is no adult competition? Author: kerrygirl [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 05:52:09 12/07/10 Tue I read somewhere that if a feis doesn't have an adult competition, an adult dancer could dance in the overs and not compromise her adult dancer status. In other words, you could dance a feis in the overs and then go back to dancing as an adult. I was told this is because if there is no adult category, then the overs ARE your category. Is this true?

Subject Author Date Of course it all depends on your TC - their opinion overrules - but if it's ok with her/him, then yes, you can do this. come back and tell of your experience! 06:13:47 12/07/10 Tue No, you're wrong, it's not only the TC's decision -- adult dancer, 06:36:07 12/07/10 Tue There was a debate about this a while ago and someone received clarification and Patrick Short clarified you can compete in &overs and not sacrifice adult status if no adult competitions are held.

In that case, you ARE allowed to compete in overs if they do not offer adults. You will not jeopardize your adult status. -- go for it, 11:48:21 12/07/10 Tue Re: If a feis has a 5 year rule then it's wise to check with your TC. But the vast majority don't.

Kerrygirl 07:26:41 12/08/10 Wed I seem to remember that was the previous discussion. Everyone talks about the "5 year rule", but it doesn't appear to be written down anywhere. mp 09:49:35 12/08/10 Wed I found it on the Mid America syllabus.
