Are there no more countries in Europe which could send  10 dancers to the WDC Europeans ?   Why not  follow Bulgarian example and "borrow"  dancers from "more keen to participate in the WDC  championships countries ?   
15 couples representing 10 countries means they will have to hold  a small  Q/F divided in two groups of 7 and 8  to eliminate the bottom 3 couples.

 Where are  Italian, Slovenian....Scandinavian representatives ?  Has dance sport lost it's popularity, or,  is this a result of the political  tug-of- war  ?

Is  this considered a good, or a disappointing  turn out  ? 
Not much for the Organizer to boast about. Not much to see for the spectators anticipating a grand show and many heats.
Are the  listed eight judges new to dance  ?   Shouldn't   better known  WDC judges be adjudicating the  WDC Europeans  ? 
Good luck to all dancers !

 Bulldog I am more than surprised by your post.  Are you not aware that there are very few Professional  10 dance couples in the world?  Many countries have no 10 dance couples. Partly this is due to expense and partly due to limitations on time. There are also very few 10 dance events.

I am surprised that Italy and Netherlands have no entries but perhaps by the time the event takes place they will be present.  There is one Slovenian.  Who are the Scandinavian dancers you were expecting?  I am not aware of Denmark, Finland, Sweden or Norway having  such couples.

So far as judges.  The countries are chosen and then it is down to that country to nominate the adjudicator.  Just shows though people complain if they get the same names all the time and then complain when they do not.   You do not know Lynette Boyce, Ratna de Ryk and Tony Irving ? You have not heard of Michael Hull a former 10 dance WDC World Champion?  You  are not aware that all the judges are highly experienced and some have judged World Championships previously?  You can be sure that every judge on the panel will be highly qualified.  I am expecting one more to be announced to make 9.  8 would be very unusual.

I am finding it very strange how people are so concerned about a Candian/Bulgarian Professional couple.  In the Amateur ranks Canada has borrowed a Bulgarian lady for one of their top couples.  USA have borrowed both Arunas and Riccardo. Many countries have borrowed Italian men for their ladies Many countries have borrowed Russian and Ukrainian dancers.  What is the big deal here?

You probably  expect Onyourtoes that all readers are  as informed about dance as you.

I don't even know why my reply was in gray, underlined with the red  dots  ( probably pressed the quote button...never mind)  . Sorry for not knowing all the scandinavian countries together had not a single 10 dancer pair.

Is this not the very reason that onyourtoes is respected by all but a few "sour grapers"?  Reliable and accurate information is most important and we know where we get it.

Thanks for the lists onyourtoes

As I expected Italy will have two representatives. They are confirmed as

ITALY - Fabrizio Cravero & Lorena Cravero

ITALY - Domenico Cannizzaro & Agnese Junkure
 

The Netherlands will also have a representative.  

NETHERLANDS Jack Super &  Marscha Ponk

 

Ninth Judge is from Ukraine,  OLENA LEMISHKO

 

Should be an interesting event.

Hello bulldog, as far as i know one more couple, Greek Professional Latin, Ballroom and Ten-Dance Champions for the last 6 years: Kiril Pandov & Sandra Gavala wanted very much to participate not only in European Ten-Dance but also in Worlds Ten-Dance. But the presidium of the Greek Dance Council decided not to send their participation as a panish! for their decision to represent Bulgaria from the next year 2010!!! P.S. the above couple were semifinalists in the previous Worlds Ten-Dance championship in Siegen. Very disappointing  if you concider that there are not many Professionals dancing 10 dances in this level. Anyway i wish good luck to all the participators and hope to see more couples next year!!

Lookingat the results from the USA Open where the Italian finished ahead of the World Champion this could be an interesting night.

Although they have not danced against each other in Latin in recent times, the last occasion Mustuk finished well ahead of Cravero.  Ladies for ease I omit your names but I acknowledge your outstanding contribution. 

 I think it is possible for the other Italian couple to have the potential to ruffle feathers.  Then the Ukranian Myrkin has generally finished ahead of the World Champion in Latin but behind in Standard.  Could be some very mixed markings!  Which is great for dancing.

But should all these comments not be in the World 10 Dance thread?

At the EUROPEAN 10 Dance I have a suspicion that Germany, Italy and Ukraine will feature in the final and also ???????????????? 

How closely will the European result follow the World Result the week before?
