The age group for Juvenile, Junior, or Youth couple is determined solely by the competition age of the older partner.
Juvenile, Junior & Youth couples may dance in their age group and/or in any higher age group, but may NOT dance in a lower age group.
Couples in which either partner’s age is 19 or above may only dance in Adult or Senior events. However, as Youth couples (age 16-18) are permitted to dance up one consecutive age level, they may also enter events in the Adult age group if they wish.
For Senior couples, the age group is determined by the competition age of the older partner, as long as the younger partner is within five years of the age limit. For example, for Senior 2, which is 45+, the older partner’s competition age must be at least 45, and the younger partner’s competition age must be at least 40.
Adults/Seniors may dance in their age group and/or in any lower Adult/Senior age group, but may NOT dance in a higher age group. They may dance in as many age groups as they wish, and the age groups do not need to be consecutive. So that a couple may dance in Senior III, Senior II and Adult.
