We've had a number of questions regarding missing competition numbers on the schedule and wanted to clarify for everyone so that they can plan their weekend. In an effort to give dancers every opportunity to move up, some competitions have been split or combined. ~ This year we tried to split competitions at 15 competitors where it left at least 6 paid entries in each split competition. ~ Where there were fewer than 6 competitors in a competition, we combined competitions as the rules would permit. This was in an effort to have enough dancers for the competition to count even in the event of no-shows. ~ At Feis na Mara, championship entries were both combined THEN split into even-year age categories both to ensure that Prelims had enough entries for their competitions to count and to change up the competitors between the two days for the panel. ~ Due to age category restrictions, it was not possible under every circumstance to combine competitions to ensure that there were 5 competitors.
