Question

Am I allowed to wear costume as a Recreational Competitor?

Answer

No. DanceSport Australia has, as part of its rules of competition, a Dress Code which clearly specifies what is and is not permissible to wear whilst competing at a registered DanceSport Australia competition. It is strongly advised that all competitors and coaches should be familiar with this dress code, a copy of which can be found on the DanceSport Australia website.
