Closing date for Championship and Preliminary entries is Friday 25th September 2015 - Championship, Preliminary and Grade entries will be also be taken on the day. 2 6 t h F e i s G l e n d a r r a g h Dear Teachers and Parents, On behalf of the Glendarragh Dance Academy we look forward to welcoming all those who have supported Feis Glendarragh in the past and hope to see new faces this year as well. We are delighted to have acquired the excellent facilities of Becket School. It is situated within easy reach of East Midlands Airport, and Nottingham Railway Station, and is very accessible by road with ample parking. Once again we will be having a Champion of Champions competition at the end of each day, those who place in the top 3 in any of the championships, will be eligible to compete. We have cups for these competitions in memory of Denis Holtham and Helen Stack, two of our most loyal and longstanding parents who passed away in 2013 and we feel it is a fitting tribute to these two people who had such a love of Irish Dancing. We have 6 adjudicators and 3 excellent musicians, and all Open Championships and Preliminary's will be judged by a panel of 3 adjudicators. Top 5 dancers in the girl’s championships and top 3 in Prelim will receive sashes and top 3 boys will receive pennants. The under 8 & 9 age group will be required to dance traditional set for their recall and then from under 10 upwards, open sets will be danced – good practice for the Great Britain & All Ireland Championships. A full catering service will be available throughout the day. The timetable is approximate, but every effort will be made to avoid any unnecessary delays. We have very efficient stage hands and they realise this and will strive to maintain this. Thank you for your support.
