Competition Policies

CU Ballroom covers competition registration and one-way travel for all dues-paying members for team  competitions each semester. The team competitions for the Fall semester are Harvard Beginners, DC Dancesport Inferno, and Princeton. The team competitions for the Spring are BADC, Rutgers, and MIT. To reserve your spot there will be a form sent out through the weekly email that must be filled out before the deadline.

Ticket Reimbursement

If the ticket we bought for you ends up unused, you MUST reimburse the club for the cost of your ticket. You will have TWO WEEKS from the ending date of the competition to reimburse  the club for unused registration, late registration, or tickets. Otherwise, the club will not pay for your travel to the next competition.

Costume Policies

How Costumes Work

We have a collection of dresses, practice skirts, and men’s shirts and pants that are available for our due-paying members to try on and borrow for team-sponsored competitions. Our costume requests are filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Please note that the number of practice skirts and  men’s apparel we have is unfortunately quite limited at the moment.

To request a costume for an upcoming competition, you must fill out the Google Form sent out for each  competition by the designated deadline, indicating which style(s) and level(s) you will be competing in, as well as any particular  preferences. Costume requests that come in after the deadline will not  be processed.

Before the competition, the Vice  President and Competition Chair will send out designated pickup times (typically during classes or practice times).
