This competition is a Nationwide dancing competition, with a difference. It is open to both Junior and Senior dancers. You do not need to be a member of a Rock and Roll Club, e.g. you could be a member of a Dance Studio or Cosmopolitan Club. The competition uses both music from the NZ Rock and Roll National's play list and contemporary music. This creates a fun and novel difference to the competition.
Clothing is also a little different:
  •  Males - NZ National Dress Code or tidy jeans and Tee shirts.
  •  Females - NZ National Dress Code, straight skirts, pedal pushers, blouses and Tee shirts.
  •  Duos: dancers have a free choice of clothing to interpret the song.
  •  Freestyle: Ladies dress or skirt any length. Men as above.
  •  Swing: "Swing" attire or Ladies dress or skirt of any length. Men as above.
