Music:

Music will be collected prior to competition for a smooth competition, where coaches can enjoy and watch their dances from the front. We will play the music that we have during your warm up time, so you can confirm that it is correct. If you are doing a Game Day routine, please make sure that your music is spliced together into ONE file. If your Game Day music is in separate files, you will need to play it yourself.
