For current WSDC rules - see here:
Champions Division – WSDC Champion Jack and Jill contest eligibility will be defined as follows:
• Any dancer that has 150+ All Star points or 1+ Champion points is eligible to dance in a WSDC Champion Jack and Jill contest.

• Any dancer that has 10+ Champion points is required to dance in the WSDC Champion division if it is offered and they wish to compete.
Petitions to move up:
All petitions to “dance up” at events that take place after July 1, 2024 must be submitted to the WSDC Chief Judges Committee (CJC) using this link: www.worldsdc.com/level-up-petition/. The CJC will review the competitor’s Points Registry record and submitted videos, and reach out to the competitor for any additional information they need to make a decision. Please note that this new process takes time to complete. The CJC will notify the competitor of their decision to approve or deny the petition within three (3) weeks from the date of submission. Petitions that are approved will allow the dancer to enter that higher-level division for six (6) months at any WSDC event anywhere in the world. Competitors will need to earn at least one point in that higher division in order to keep dancing at that level after the six months have passed.
​
Petitions to move down:

To move down a division, petitions must be filled out and sent to: wwwpetitionsubmission@gmail.com. A separate petition audition may be required by the request of the HJ (Estelle Bonnaire).
