Accounts & Access

One identity for every way you take part in a competition — as an individual, or as an organization.

Personal Accounts

One account is all an individual needs — to compete, to declare a studio or collegiate affiliation, and to take on every official role you are invited to, without creating anything twice.

Studio & Team Accounts

A dedicated account type for dance studios and collegiate dance teams, built for managing people and entries as a group rather than one dancer at a time.

  • One roster of professionals and dancers, with your affiliation applied to all of them
  • Partnerships formed between your own dancers
  • Entries submitted for everyone you manage, in one pass
  • The only account type that can enter team events
ForStudio

Competition Management

Define the rulebook, build the schedule, and run the day from a single console.

Competition Setup & Operations

Take a competition through its entire lifecycle — from pre-registration to concluded — with the structural decisions that shape the event available up front.

  • Elimination and non-elimination competition modes
  • Dynamic Events that create themselves only when someone enters them
  • Multiple sessions across multiple floors, with rounds and flights able to run at the same time
  • Officials managed alongside the schedule, with adjudicator panels set per event or per round
  • Bib number generation and competition templates for faster setup
ForOrganizer

Event Configuration

Build events that match any rulebook. Adopt an established United States dancesport federation, or define your own federation, divisions, age groups, and proficiency levels from scratch.

  • Established U.S. federations, or a fully custom federation
  • Custom divisions, age groups, and proficiency levels
  • Partnered, solo, and team entry types for events
  • Multi-style and multi-dance events
  • Skating System or points-based scoring, chosen per event
  • Standard, Latin, Smooth, Rhythm, Cabaret, Show Dance, Team Match, Formation, Night Club, and Break
ForOrganizer

Multi-Style Rounds

A round can take more than one place on the program — one slot per style — which is what makes ten-dance, nine-dance, and every other multi-style event work the way the rulebook describes.

  • Ten-dance, nine-dance, and multi-styled team matches
  • Entries, recalls, and placements stay with the one round, however many slots it takes
  • Finalized as a whole, for one set of placements across every style
  • Preliminary rounds split the same way finals do
ForOrganizer

Round Planner & Generation

The platform estimates how many rounds each event requires and how long it will take from your competition configuration, then builds the schedule from those estimates in one click.

  • Round counts and run times estimated from your own configuration
  • Heat numbers taken from your own running order, set by dragging events into place
  • Comprehensive schedule configuration per session
  • Flights spaced so a dancer with several partnerships is never called to two floors at once
  • Session and floor scheduling with timing estimates

Competition Branding

Upload your artwork and it becomes the banner across your competition pages and its image wherever the competition is listed.

ForOrganizer

Partnerships & Registration

Pair up — or enter without a partner — then register through a form built for the kind of event you are entering.

Partnership Requests

Both dancers agree to a partnership before either can enter with it, and once confirmed it carries into every entry you make together — labelled PRO, AM, or Pro/Am so the pairing is clear at a glance.

ForAthleteStudio

TBA Entries

A missing partner no longer costs a dancer the competition. They enter under the role they dance, and the organizer pairs them before the event.

  • Lead, Follow, or Flex — Flex dances either role and widens the pool
  • Pairing stays in the organizer’s hands, not the system’s
  • Open to studio-managed dancers as readily as to personal accounts
ForAthleteStudioOrganizer

Event Registration

A registration form shaped by how you are competing, and identical whether you enter as a dancer or on behalf of a studio.

  • Partnered, solo, and team entries, each with a form built for it
  • Single-dance and multi-dance entries created on demand
  • Team entries registered, numbered, and enrolled into rounds like any other entry
  • Existing entries in view as you register, so nothing goes in twice
  • One shareable link per competition, opening straight into the right form
  • A single dashboard for everything you have entered
ForAthleteStudioOrganizer

Entry Rules & Eligibility

The limits you set are enforced as entries are made, identically on every route in — so nobody has to police the entry list by hand afterwards.

  • Entry caps per athlete and per partnership
  • No double entry into the same event, unless you allow it
  • Optional professional-status checks against an event division
  • Bib numbers assigned automatically, from separate amateur, professional, and team ranges
  • Dancers and studios enter while registration is open, and officials can seed or correct outside it
  • No date of birth held, so age categories stay on the honor system

Competition Day

Marks in, placements out — validated, calculated, and shared across the floor as it happens.

Schedule Item Console

Adjudicators, scrutineers, deck captains, and emcees all work from the same competition timeline, laid out as a side navigation of schedule items — each holding one or more rounds or flights due to run at the same time.

  • A single timeline of the competition, grouped by session
  • Rounds and flights running at the same time are kept side by side
  • Adjudicators see only the schedule items they are assigned to
  • Built to work on a phone or tablet at the side of the floor
ForAdjudicatorScrutineerDeck CaptainEmcee

Digital Judging Panel

A clean, ergonomic marking interface that adapts to what the round in front of the adjudicator actually calls for.

  • Purpose-built layout for preliminary round recalls
  • Ergonomic interface for placement-based finals
  • Proficiency points for flight entries in non-elimination events
  • Marks validated on submission, and final once they are in
  • Scratched couples never appear on a panel
ForAdjudicator

Scrutineering & Results

Comprehensive control over every round and every dance within it, with placements calculated for you and manual entry always available as a fallback. The tabulation is written and maintained by a certified scrutineer.

  • Every round under the scrutineer’s hand, from queued through finalized
  • Placements tabulated the moment the last adjudicator marks
  • Recalculation on demand, if something needs a second look
  • Full Skating System, with tie-breaking for single-dance and multi-dance events and Second Inspection
  • Points-based scoring supported alongside the Skating System
  • A multi-style round finalized as one, even when its styles ran heats apart
  • Manual entry of recalls and placements as a backup
ForScrutineer

Tabulation Audit Log

Every placement the Skating System produces can be traced back to the rule that produced it. The audit log records the decisions tabulation made, in the order it made them, for the scrutineer to verify.

  • A challenge from the floor answered with the rule, not an opinion
  • Every tie the calculation broke, and every tie it accepted
  • Single-dance and overall placements alike, for the scrutineer only
ForScrutineer

Floor Check-In & Live Status

Deck captains check athletes in and record scratches at the floor, and every update propagates immediately to everyone who depends on it.

  • Check-ins and scratches recorded at the floor, as they happen
  • Entries grouped by heat group, the way the round will be called
  • Updates delivered in real time to the scrutineer, emcee, and adjudicators
ForDeck CaptainEmceeScrutineer

Your Schedule on the Day

Once the organizer publishes the schedule, every round and flight you are entered in — solo, partnered, or team — appears on your own page in running order, and follows the schedule as it changes.

Live Results & Public Scoreboard

Placements reach the public scoreboard as rounds close, so competitors and spectators stop crowding the scoring table waiting for a printout.

  • Recalls and final placements published as rounds are finalized
  • Publication under the organizer’s control, session by session
  • A public scoreboard anyone can follow while the event runs
  • A public page for every competition, with each event’s entries listed under it, and the schedule beside them
  • Results stay browsable after the competition concludes
