JACK & JILL COMPETITIONS
Jack & Jill contests are a fun way to allow individuals to enter competition without a partner and challenge their social dancing prowess with a variety of partners. There is an inherent “luck of the draw” factor involved. Leaders and followers are randomly paired. Competitors are scored individually on timing, technique and teamwork in the preliminary heats. Those scoring the highest will be called back later to dance in a final round. In the final, individuals are randomly paired, then scored as a couple. The DJ picks the music.
Competitors may compete in a maximum of two (2) skill level WSDC Jack and Jill competitions, once in their primary role and once in their secondary role, with limitations due to approved exceptions. Competitors must maintain their selected role, either as a Leader or Follower, during a Jack and Jill contest. No switching is allowed.
WSDC JACK & JILL LEVELS
The World Swing Dance Council Points Registry is used to determine eligibility for the West Coast Swing Jack & Jill divisions. The only way you may enter a division other than by meeting the points qualifications below is by petitioning the chief judge or event director before the competition.

- WSDC Newcomer
- WSDC Novice
- WSDC Intermediate
