Since its inception in 1987, Dallas D.A.N.C.E. has become one of the most prestigious dance conventions nationwide. It provides not only a weekend of great music and dancing, but also quality competitions. The competitors work long hours to prepare to put on a good show. To acknowledge our appreciation for their efforts and achievements, the Dallas D.A.N.C.E. Committee established the Dallas D.A.N.C.E. Hall of Fame.
The system of scoring
is objective. It is based on "Three A's": Achievement, Advancement, and Activity.
Induction into the Dallas D.A.N.C.E. Hall of Fame requires
a minimum of 1,500 points.
The points and percentages earned have
been weighted to accommodate the various levels of dance.

| 1st | place | 100 pts. | 6th | place | 25 pts. | |

| 3rd | place | 50 pts. | 8th | place | 15 pts. | |
| 4th | place | 40 pts. | 9th | place | 10 pts. | |
| 5th | place | 30 pts. | 10th | place | 5 pts. |

[(30 x .25 + 5)] + [40 x .25) + 10] = (7.5 + 5) + (12.5 + 10)
= 12.5 + 22.5
= 35 Total Points
