DanceSport WA Rankings
Welcome to the Rankings!
DanceSport WA Rankings are only for WA Amateur Couples.
The DSWA Rankings is a system used to compile the ranking of competitive couples each year. In the DanceSport calendar there are ‘ranking’ events and the results from these ranking events are used to determine which couples are appointed State Representatives for the year.
Criteria for Amateur Competitors
Points are awarded for Open events only.
