Vor exista 5 arbitri, drept urmare, calcularea punctajului final al unei rutine, se va face respectand stilul olimpic de jurizare, astfel:

STILUL OLIMPIC

Scorurile pentru criterii sunt insumate pentru fiecare jurat separat. Astfel avem scorul final al fiecarui jurat.

Din punctajele tuturor juratilor, scorurile maxime si minime sunt eliminate.

Toate scorurile ramase ale celorlati trei jurati, sunt mediate pentru a obtine un punctaj final.

Exemplu:

– punctajul total al arbitrului 1: 60 puncte

– punctajul total al arbitrului 2: 70 puncte

– punctajul total al arbitrului 3: 80 puncte

– punctajul total al arbitrului 4: 90 puncte

– punctajul total al arbitrului 5: 40 puncte

Eliminam: cea mai mare nota-90 (arbitrul 4) si cea mai mica nota-40 (arbitrul 5)

Scorul final al concurentului/echipei: (60+70+80) / 3 arbitri = 70 de puncte

DIFERENTIERE IN CAZ DE EGALITATE

Head Judge-ul va calcula scorul final în format olimpic, unde nu vor fi luate in considerare cele mai mici si cele mai mari scoruri totale

Dupa ce a fost calculat scorul mediu total al echipei departajarea in caz de egalitate, se va face dupa cum urmeaza:

Also, each applicant must provide WOD Romania with the main contact name, e-mail and phone number.

Without a video selection no contestant can participate in the competition.

 

The video for selection can be from the team’s last performance or a video from a rehearsal. Unfortunately, we cannot accept videos of dance classes as selection videos. Videos from dance classes will not be selected.

 

World of Dance Romania will examine each moment and will select the participating teams, those selected will receive the confirmation answer from World Of Dance ROMANIA in order to register in the competition.

 

For participants in Battles and Workshops and for teams participating at the invitation of the organizer, video selection is not required.

 

The selection of videos will be made from 01.08.2024 until 31.08.2024, 23:59. Any video submitted after 31.08.2024 will not be considered for this edition.

 

  1. CATEGORIES WORLD OF DANCE ROMANIA

 

Within the WOD Romania Championship Series, the participation categories are divided into two areas – Competition and Showcase, as well as a separate category called All Styles Battle.

 

  • COMPETITION CATEGORIES

 

The routines of the categories below are evaluated by a specialized jury.

 

  • JUNIOR DIVISION (Age: 6-18) – 1- 4 dancers (solo, duo, trio, quartet)
  • UPPER DIVISION (Age: 18+) – 1- 4 dancers (solo, duo, trio, quartet)
  • JUNIOR TEAM DIVISON (Age: 6-18) – 5+ dancers (group/formation)
  • TEAM DIVISION (Age: all ages) – 5+ dancers (group/formation)

 

The age of the participant must respect the rules imposed by these rules and will refer to the actual age of the competitor on the day of the World Of Dance Romania competition. Failure to do so will result in the disqualification of your team and its elimination.

NOTE: A DANCER CAN PERFORM AN UNLIMITED NUMBER OF TIMES WITHIN THE SAME DIVISION.

 

NOTE:

If there are six (6) or fewer teams registered in the Junior Team Division competition, those teams will be moved to the Team Division to compete in the All Age Group and the Junior Division category will be excluded from WOD qualification.

 

  • SHOWCASE DIVISION

 

ATTENTION: Those who perform in this category will not be evaluated by the jury.

 

Participants in this category can showcase their routines in the Romania World of Dance Championship Series and thus join the brand and the international community.

 

Participants in the Showcase category can present their routines according to the same rules of participation as those presented in the categories that are part of the competition, with the specification that for this category there is no time limit for the routine presented.

 

SHOWCASE DIVISION videos will be posted on the official YouTube channel ‘World Of Dance’.

 

Attention: Depending on the number of entries in the competition, the organizer Romania World Of Dance Championship Series, reserves the right to select and limit entries in this category.

 

  • ALL STYLES BATTLE

All Styles Battle is a 1vs1 and 2vs2 category and is open to all dancers, both men and women. Dancers will dance impromptu to any style and rhythm of music selected by the Battle DJ. Judges appointed by the organizer will evaluate the quality of the performance, musicality, dance technique and personality of the dancers.

 

  • WORLD OF DANCE FINALS 2025 QUALIFIERS 

Only the winners of the Junior Team and Team Division who will be ranked 1st, 2nd or 3rd and who have obtained a final score over 80 points out of a maximum total of 100 points will be invited to participate in the World Of Dance 2025 World Finals.

In case the first three ranked teams do not exercise their intention to travel to the World Finals in the USA, the next three ranked teams (4th, 5th and 6th place) can qualify to represent Romania, only if they meet the condition related to obtaining the minimum score of 80 points.

 

Junior teams will compete in the same category in which they qualified, provided that their age is the same as above at the time of qualification. For example, if a dancer is 18 years old and competes in the Romanian WOD junior division on 26.10.2024, but turns 18 on 01.01.2025, they will still be able to compete in the junior division in the 2025 WOD finals because we take into account the age category they qualified in (not their age in 2024).

 

If the winning teams have competed and qualified in more than one country, they can select the country they will represent at the World Finals.

 

World of Dance reserves the right to invite any team to the WOD Finals. Videos of all routines will be posted on the official YouTube WOD channels.

 

  • WORLD OF DANCE SUMMIT QUALIFICATIONS

 

All participants entered in the competition, regardless of place and final score, can participate in 2024 at the World Dance Summit – a 5-day event that will include The World Showcase, The Summit Games and Master Classes, culminating in the World Of Dance Finals 2025. 

Details of the World Dance Summit will be stipulated in Annex 1 to these regulations.

  • CALCULATION METHOD

 

There will be 5 judges, therefore, the calculation of the final score of a routine will be done following the Olympic style of judging as follows:

 

OLYMPIC STYLE

The scores for the criteria are summed for each judge separately. This gives the final score for each judge.

From the scores of all judges, the maximum and minimum scores are eliminated.

All the remaining scores of the other three judges are averaged to get a final score.

 

Example:

– total score of judge 1: 60 points

– total score of judge 2: 70 points

– total score of judge 3: 80 points

– total score of judge 4: 90 points

– total score of judge 5: 40 points

 

Eliminate: highest score-90 (judge 4) and lowest score-40 (judge 5)

Final competitor/team score: (60+70+80) / 3 judge = 70 points

 

DIFFERENTIATION IN CASE OF A TIE

The Head Judge will calculate the final score in Olympic format, where the lowest and highest total scores will not be taken into account.

After calculating the average total score of the team, the tie-breaker in case of a tie will be as follows:

 

– Average technical scores. If it’s still a tie,

– Average performance scores. If it’s still a tie,

– Average choreography scores. If it’s still a tie,

– Average attractiveness scores for creativity. If we still have a tie,

– Average appeal scores on presentation. If we still have a tie,

– Majority vote of the judges by show of hands

** Each competing team may request to see the score sheets immediately after the Awards Ceremony.
