The Cheering Sections 05/10/2014

CEZ Arena - DanceSport The crowd following the first round of the World Latin at the CEZ Arena could be mistaken for one that gathers here for the ice hockey matches.  It’s hard to say how many there are, but they are certainly up the level of decibels by a margin that should keep fan support in DanceSport up to par with other sports.

Round one was danced in ten heats of between 8 and 9 couples. The redance is coming up shortly - and after that you will be able to follow the progress of the competition through the live results.
