Byze Dance Competition (New South Wales, Australia) 2026 syllabus: 16 dance genres (jazz, musical theatre, lyrical, contemporary, ballet, tap, hip hop, acro and more) for solos, duos and trios by age group and section from My First Year to Open, scored out of 100 on technique, choreography, performance, musicality and presentation, plus the Entertainment Excellence and Technical Titan titles.

A ready-made solo-led dance competition: 16 dance genres for solos, duos and trios, seven solo age groups crossed with four experience sections, six duo and trio age groups, plus two separate Title awards judged on entertainment and on technique.

This template sets up an Australian-style studio dance competition built around the solo, with duos and trios alongside. It was built from one New South Wales competition’s 2026 syllabus, read in full. There are 16 dance genres, each its own item: Traditional Jazz, Commercial Jazz, Broadway Jazz, Musical Theatre, Lyrical, Commercial Contemporary, Traditional Contemporary, Classical Ballet, Demi Character, Fast Tap, Slow Tap, Straight Tap, Hip Hop, Acro, Student Choreography and Own Choice. Two further items, the Entertainment Excellence Title and the Technical Titan Title, sit apart from the genres as headline awards with their own scoring. That makes 18 items in all, and every one of them has its own page on this site.

An entry is placed by its age and, for solos, by its experience section. The syllabus prints seven solo age groups: 5 and Under (the babies), 6 and Under, 8 and Under, 10 and Under, 12 and Under, 14 and Under and 15 and Over. Each solo age group is split into four sections: My First Year (a dancer’s first twelve months of solo competition), Specially Restricted (has not yet placed first against four or more competitors), Restricted (has placed first in a specially restricted section against four or more competitors) and Open (has won a restricted section against four or more competitors). Every age and section pairing is its own group, which gives 28 solo groups. The printed age labels are cumulative, so the template installs them as consecutive bands (ages 3 to 5, 6, 7 to 8, 9 to 10, 11 to 12, 13 to 14 and 15 and over); the syllabus prints no minimum age, so 3 is a floor chosen for the template. A dancer may enter several solos but never the same genre twice.

Duos and trios are entered under their oldest dancer and use six age groups (6 and Under, 8 and Under, 10 and Under, 12 and Under, 14 and Under and 15 and Over) with no sections, because the syllabus prints none for them. The two Titles are not split by age or section in the printed rules: each allows one routine per entrant, in any style, with a repeated routine allowed, and is judged independently of every other section for a major prize. The syllabus does not say whether duos or trios may enter the Titles, or at which ages, so the template installs one all-ages Title group open to both solo and duo or trio entries. In total that is 35 groups.

Scoring is out of 100 per judge. The 16 genres share one five-part sheet: Technique 50, Choreography 15, Performance Quality 15, Musicality and Interpretation 15, and Costuming and Presentation 5. The Entertainment Excellence Title is judged 100 per cent on entertainment and the Technical Titan Title 100 per cent on technique. The rules print first, second and third place awards and a Highly Commended award but no points for them and no mark bands, so the four placings are installed at zero points and no grades are installed. No time limits are printed, so none are set. Entry fees, the marshalling rule, music and costume rules, the right to combine sections and the special awards are registration matters for the coordinator rather than structure the platform holds. Rules change between seasons, so check the current edition before reusing groups.

Where this event is run

Solo-led studio dance competitions with a long menu of genres and experience-based sections that promote a dancer once they win are a familiar format in Australia, where regional dance events invite dance schools and independent dancers to enter several solos across a weekend. Similar section ladders are used on studio circuits in New Zealand, the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. This template follows one New South Wales series’ rules and suits any dance school, festival or touring competition that wants age and section groups for solos, age groups for duos and trios, and two headline Title awards in one structure without hand-building 35 groups.

Frequently asked questions

Can I change this template after installing it?

Yes — installing it creates a fully configured, live event, not a locked package. Every age group, competition item, rule and scoring setting can be edited afterwards to match exactly what your event actually needs.

Do I need technical knowledge to set this up?

No. Installing a template does the setup work for you; you only need to review the details (dates, unit or house names) and open registration.

Want the fuller picture first? See our guide to group dance judging criteria guide.
