AWARDS POLICIES

• If a dancer has multiple solos, we take the highest scoring solo as the overall placement.

• To ensure fairness among all competitors, all entries will perform in the order they are scheduled. If for any reason an entry must perform out of order, it must be approved by a Destiny Director and it must be danced before the end of its scheduled session. Not following this rule, the entry will not qualify for overalls.

• In order for overalls to be distributed, the category must have a minimum of 3 or more in the category.

• Dancers may not compete against themselves in any performance style and category. (Ie: If a performer has two Tap Solo they may only compete the second routine in the next age category up).

• Top Studio qualification: Must bring a minimum of 5 group entries in the pre-competitive and/or competitive level to qualify in the placement. The event must have 500+ entries entered in the competition total.

• All competition results are final.

• Scores, placements, and adjudications will not be discussed with participants, parents, or studio representatives under any circumstances.

• Judges are not to be approached at any time during the event. Destiny Dance Competition is committed to upholding the highest standards of integrity, professionalism, and fair adjudication.

• Judges’ critiques and scores will be made available on Dancebug following the event. These recordings are intended to provide constructive feedback and support dancer growth.

• Scholarships awarded at the event hold no cash value and are non-transferable unless otherwise specified. All scholarship-related inquiries must be directed to the organization listed on the award.

• Award distribution, including placements, special awards, and scholarships, is determined at the sole discretion of Destiny Dance Competition and may vary by event location.

• In the case of a tie, the tabulator takes the entry with the highest technical score to break the tie.

• By registering for Destiny Dance Competition, all participants, parents, and studio representatives agree to abide by all rules, regulations, and policies set forth by the organization.
