VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

• If on solo dresses then asper CLRG rules as of September 2025, dancers can either change their costume before dancing or if this is not possible, they will be allowed to dance but not be marked. Anyone dancing with identifiers, should receive all 0's, if this did not happen and dancer placed, then appeals should be made by dancers who placed below them. (NT) -- -, Sun, Oct 05 2025, 13:06:52"
  • This did not happen, they were scored and several were very highly placed (NT) -- Not fair on those that had their dresses fixed to compete, Mon, Oct 06 2025, 9:50:16"
    • Email CLRG and let them know. If no one reports it, then nothing will be done and it will keep happening. (NT) -- No name, Mon, Oct 06 2025, 21:57:15"
  • The enforcement of this rule was decided to be "self enforcement", because no one could fully define an identifier. Judges were explicitly instructed to NOT factor this into marking. (NT) -- per last CLRG meeting, Tue, Oct 07 2025, 15:45:54"
    • whats the point of the rule then, its ridiculous. lots of dancers had changes made to their dress to comply but you actually dont have too (NT) -- so unfair, make the rules and enforce them, Tue, Oct 07 2025, 18:50:05"
      • There is no longer a point. There was no way to write a rule that was enforceable for this. (NT) -- back to the drawing board, Wed, Oct 08 2025, 18:33:02"
    • What is self enforcement? Does that mean organisers/marshalling are supposed to enforce it or what? (NT) -- -, Tue, Oct 07 2025, 20:29:59"
      • Self enforcement means teachers are expected to follow it. No one other than the teacher themself is enforcing this rule. (NT) -- ..., Wed, Oct 08 2025, 18:31:53"
    • Asper CLRG "Solo costumes (including headwear) worn in championship competitions must not include any “Identifying Designs”. Dancers breaching this rule must be instructed to either amend or replace the costume in order to appear on stage to compete. Dancers who are unable to amend or replace the costume may still participate but will not be scored. Effective 01 September 2025" if AIDA won't enforce this rule at national level, what other rules are ok to break? Or is it just ok to break the ones that allow cheating by known proven cheats to continue destroying Irish dance for money? (NT) -- -, Wed, Oct 08 2025, 7:12:25"
      • This rule has been amended to remove the specifics about enforcement. No one is enforcing it. Period. It's meant to be followed "in good faith". (NT) -- it's not enforceable anyway, Wed, Oct 08 2025, 18:30:52"
