Level Designation: You must enter the pageant level that corresponds with your solo level.
Contest Statement on Double Entering: Double entering will not be allowed for pageant events (meaning you can only enter one level of pageant). Double entering IS allowed for other events (solo, basic, x-strut, two baton), but you must enter the level your twirler currently competes in as well as the next level up. *Please Note* If they win the next level up, they must move up to that level permanently for that event, even if they have no competitors at that level.
The program will be emailed out the week of the contest (typically on Wednesday evening). There will NOT be paper copies available at the contest, so please print out your own or download the PDF to your phone.
*Individual Music Submission*
Anyone entering an event with individual music (show twirl, rhythmic, UIL, team, collegiate twirl, freestyle, etc) must submit their music via email to ATXTwirlFest@gmail.com by December 2nd. Music will only be played via pre-loaded music files We will not have a CD player or alternate playing option. This will prevent the need for sound checks or music malfunctions since all music will be able to be tested beforehand.
