I don’t quite get the concept of running an “International” competition when it barely draws or attracts 1 international competitor? Those that do attend are either from NZ or are of a teacher associated by a school in someway? You are not going to get more competitor entries when you hold it in a venue like Bankstown, let alone get repeat international entries. There’s no attraction whatsoever. It might be just another good interstate feis that anyone can enter, but the fad has well and truly died and it’s definitely not a viable and sustainable competition the way it’s going. -- Australian Irish Dance Message Board

In reply to: Time to change 's message, "AIO in Bankstown, never again! Accommodation has been a shitshow and expensive one rate for Thursday then double the next night rooms not ready when they were suppose to be and then no texts, rooms not correct, lifts not working, escalators not working and the competitions running so over time, couple that with no lovely glass trophies anymore just plastic cups , results mucked up in a few sections and it's been a very disappointing championships this year" on Sat, Jul 15 2023, 9:28:05"
