Awards

In order to celebrate accomplishments while fostering healthy competition, CoreDance operates with a two-tiered awards system. Each dancer will be evaluated according to their own age, not necessarily the age of the category in which they have entered. According to these terms, they will be awarded Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum standing based on their score percentage bracket.

Percentage brackets:

  • Bronze = 0-83%
  • Silver = 84-87%
  • Gold = 88-94%
  • Platinum = 95%+

In addition to these standings, the top three highest marks in that category will be awarded 1st, 2nd, and 3rd placements.

The top ten highest scored groups and top ten highest scored solos will be asked to perform in the Gala Showcase where we celebrate the accomplishments of the CoreDance Nanaimo Competition. Soloists must have solos in three or more categories in order to qualify for a top ten highest score and award. Highest scored dances must perform in the Gala in order to receive their cash prize and CoreDance plaque.

Scholarships, bursaries and prizes will also be awarded to deserving young dancers who have been selected by the adjudicators. This could be any dancer who has entered the competition – you do not need to be among the performers in the Gala to receive a scholarship or prize. In order to receive your scholarship or prize you must be in attendance at the Gala Showcase. Gala scholarships, bursaries & prizes will be announced closer to the competition. Keep watching the CoreDance website for updates on scholarship and prizes!
