The student dancers themselves register for the event at www.ido-sport.org by selecting the IDO-EUSA link above.

They will also need an IDO ID (DIES number) that will be forwarded to them.
The IDO-EUSA competitors can form duos in the same form. In case of any problems when enrolling please contact sports@eusa.eu.
The final step is to go to “COMPETITION”, check the list of competitions (just information) and then under “COMPETITION-ANNOUNCEMENT” they choose where they will compete and submit that. They will receive an automatic reply if they are on the starting list or on the waiting list in case the number of enrolments has already been achieved as there are limits per competition.
No extra charges as the ones stated in the IDO Dance sport rules and regulations will apply.

3. Enrolment for dancers that will take part at the IDO-EUSA Championships and are not members of IDO NMO:
Student dancers not members of IDO have the same procedure as explained above except that they do not have an IDO ID number. The form needs to be printed out and brought to the competition to be handed to the EUSA delegate.
Each dancer has to cover IDO Registration fee of 20 EUR, event starting fee of 20 EUR and additional 80 EUR if participant is not a member of IDO structure (local, regional and international).

First competition round is done on the first day of the IDO qualifying rounds of the same category but in different hours.
Then the best 6 student/dancer dance a separate IDO-EUSA European Universities Championship final that takes part on the same day as the IDO final, but at a different time.
