We travel North to feis because we are fed up with Southern schools allowing dancers to dance pre-open when theyve won their dances over and over. My little ones stuck in pre-open and can’t get out because dancers in U11 and U12 dancing both week after week when they’re after winning all their dances again last week in pre-open and still dancing and winning pre-open yesterday according to the photos. U12 parents and schools stop the cheating and chasing trophies yis are the talk of the place. -- AN COMHDHÁIL IRISH DANCING FORUM

In reply to: DM 's message, "In Dublin today and cannot understand how a dancer wins a championship while her feet are flat on the floor. Like heels actually stuck to the floor??" on Sat, May 17 2025, 22:53:58

Fed up with this nonsense now. Why should I have to drive miles to the North to feis my little one because of trophy chasing schools and dance mams. This needs to stop 🛑. Yis should be mortified at what your doing we were there last week, we seen what your dancers won again and there they are in photos from yesterday back dancing pre-open again when your after winning all your dances last week. Maybe these schools need called out for blatant cheating. Are yis ok? Cop yourselves on! We see yis dancing open and placing every week then going back and winning pre-open.
