The Teams
NB: The following details relate to the 2019/20 academic year, but have been left to give you an outline of how the society works. decisions on teams and competition entry will be subject to adherence to government Covid-19 regulations.
The competition team are likely to meet every week and will be made up of roughly around 20 dancers. we are looking for people who are able to commit to rehearsals and we're aiming to enter three university dance competitions in 2020.
Your membership fee should cover individual entry for all of the competitions but there may be additional costs required for insurance, costumes and transport.
The Varsity team are also likely to meet every week. The team will be made up of 20+ dancers and will be taught by an external teacher. This class will be more relaxed because it's not a competitive team, but you will perform at varsity - an inter-university sports tournament against Aston University - which takes place in April.
