Like each year the Christmas Challenge Trophy was a super competition. Many participants in all classes, the hall was decorated with Christmas trees and lights. Santa Claus was collecting the result sheets from the adjudicators which added to the atmosphere. Congratulations to the organisation for a very nice competition and the seven adjudicators in all ballroom classes.
About our dancing (D-class-NADB): we started with a poor performance in the first and redance round but managed to reach the semi finals. In the semi finals our dance quality improved, we didn't have problems with traffic or our routines, which resulted in a place to the final. During the final all dances were a lot better than the previous rounds. We ended the competition in place 6 out of 20 couples. We were happy with this result.
Zoals elk jaar was de Christmas Challenge Trophy weer een super competitie. In iedere klasse waren er veel deelnemende paren, de hal was gedecoreerd met kerstbomen en lichtjes. De kerstman was ook aanwezig en hielp de jury leden bij het ophalen van de resultaatformulieren. Mijn felicitaties aan de organisatie voor een zeer goede wedstrijd met zeven juryleden per klasse.
Over ons dansen (D-Klasse-NADB): we zijn zeer slecht gestart in de eerste ronde en de herkansing, maar het was toch goed genoeg om de halve finale te bereiken. In de halve finale is onze danskwaliteit gestegen, we hadden geen problemen meer met onze programma's en het verkeer, dit resulteerde in de een kwalificatie voor de finale. We eindigen de competitie op plaats 6 van 20 paren. We waren blij met dit resultaat.
