UVU Team Match
Date: February 16th
Location: TBA
Time: TBA
Admission: Students and Spectator pricing is $8.
UVU team match is our regional event. This is a qualifying event for the BYU team match. This means only the 10 top scoring schools will be invited back to dance at BYU. We are only allowed 2 teams, per level, per school at the UVU event. I will take the top scoring dancers from the Alpine team match to the UVU team match. Teams, dances and partners will be changed around to allow more people to dance. (No double dancing allowed at UVU). This event will last about 1½ hours, longer if you child chooses to dance in a Newcomer event.
Couple competition (Newcomer event): This is optional. Couples can dance Cha Cha and/or Swing at this event, even if their team isn’t participating in the team match event. If your student is not participating in the team match event at UVU, they will have to pay for their own entry fee into the competition. I will have registration forms in February, if your child is interested.
Dress:
Boys: Must wear plain dark colored slacks. They must have a button up, collared, long-sleeved dress shirt. No vests. Black tie only (can be provided by the school if you don’t have access to one). Black socks. Dark colored dress shoes. Hair neatly combed.

BYU Team Match
Date: March 9th
Location: Brigham Young University - Marriott Center
Time: TBA
Admission: Spectator pricing is $12+. Team match participants' admission will be paid for by the school. Your ticket allows you to come and go all day. I strongly encourage those with tickets to come back for the evening events (Professional Standard, Cabaret and Amateur/Youth events)
BYU is the national competition. If our school is invited to this event then I will only take the top scoring dancers from the UVU event. We are allowed 1 team per school per level. There is a chance that only the Level 1 or the Level 2 group will qualify for this event. The Level 1 class team will be a mixture of the top scoring couples from each of the Level 1 classes. This event is 45 minutes long, however students who attend this event are strongly encouraged to participate in the Newcomer events, so plan on spending more time at the event.
