The entry forms for the OHS Tiger Classic are available online now here:

OHS Tiger Classic Entry Form

Please note that on some preliminary forms that we gave to coaches, there was an error. Please note these changes:

• Adult Pre-Champ Latin dances will be Cha Cha/Samba/Rumba (CC/S/R), not CC/S/PD
• We added an Open West Coast Swing category

Please note that the NDCA has officially changed the reference to the style previously known as “Standard”. It will now be called “Ballroom” in the United States to reflect the terminology used in the rest of the world. Local competitions will also start using this term to reference the style, rather than “Standard”, as used in the past.
