We are pleased to announce the HDAO Cup!
What: An escalating draw based on participation at HDAO indoor competitions and our partner Games
Who: All current HDAO Members (excluding Primary)
How it works: At the dancer’s first competition, their name is added to the pool once. At their second competition it is added twice (total of three times). At their third competition it is added three times (total of six times). And so on. A dancer that competes at each of our three indoor competitions and four partner Games will have their name added to the pool 28 times. Dancers must dance at the competition to qualify.
At the end of the season we will draw for the HDAO cup winner as well as the second and third place winners. Smaller draws will also take place randomly throughout the season.
GRAND PRIZE: $500 & HDAO Cup Perpetual
2nd Prize: $300
3rd Prize: $200
