Exciting news! If you missed out on qualifying for the Bend The Air National Finals, here’s your last chance to earn your spot! We’re thrilled to announce our Wild Card Round – an exclusive opportunity for competitors to showcase their skills and potentially join us at Nationals! 🌟

​

Here’s how it works:

✨ Last Opportunity to Qualify: This is your final chance to make it to Nationals and be part of the most electrifying event of the year! 

​

🤩 Who Can Enter?  Whether you weren't able to attend a regional event, competed at a regional but didn't qualify or have qualified a routine but would like to try to qualify in additional sections, the Wild Card Round is open for all Bend The Air categories (aerial & acro/circus). 

​

📅 Entry Deadline: Submit your video entry by Wednesday, 27th November to be considered.

​

🎥 Video Submission: Access the online entry portal and click "Add New Registration" to get started, follow the prompts to enter your routine, pay the fee and upload your performance. Your video must meet our regular routine requirements. It can be a performance video or a video recorded in your training space. 

​

💰 Wild Card Round Entry Fee: $35 per routine.

​

🏆 Judging Process: Our BTA review panel will assess each entry, and those awarded a wild card will be notified via email. Video performances will be judged based on the same judging criteria that is used at all of our regional events. 

​

The Wild Card Round is a straightforward selection process, with entries either being successful or not. Due to the nature of this round, competitors won't receive individual feedback on their entry video. Our panel will be reviewing each submission thoroughly to ensure fair consideration for all competitors.

​
