Starting List | 2012 World Senior I Standard 05/02/2012

And here's the starting list for the 2012 WDSF World DanceSport Championship Senior I Standard that has started only a few moments ago. We are told that two couples had a more than adventurous journey to Antwerp. Marcello Daga / Marina Pau, ITA, and Stefano Bernardini / Stefania Martellini, ITA, planned to get here yesterday, 4 December. Their flight got cancelled. A second try today was more successful, but they only made it to the Extra Time sports hall when the first round was already in progress. They were able to do the Quickstep and have now to go through the redance. Such things can happen: even to World Champions!

What Is Still To Come ... 05/02/2012

2012 GrandSlam Latin Antwerp © Roland The WDSF Communications team continues to bring you top-level DanceSport throughout today as well. This blog remains active with a few more clips of yesterday's GrandSlam Latin going up shortly, and with coverage on the 2012 WDSF World DanceSport Championship Senior I Standard. The first championship of 2012 is scheduled to start in just a few hours. We will provide you with a starting list as soon as possible. The World Championship Final should get danced around 21:00 CET.

In terms of more comprehensive coverage on the GrandSlam Latin, we will compile a "Final Reel" with the heaps of footage that was recorded and could not get posted in a timely manner due to the limited bandwith at the venue and the hotel. By Wednesday next week you should be able to enjoy an even more in-depth look at the first leg of the 2012 Grand Slam Series.

We have also added a few more photographs to our Gallery.
