These times are approximations, we want to give extra time, for those in teams that need it, to familiarise themselves with the

space as much as possible and to reduce some of the time pressures put on both performers and judges. If after you have

performed and additional time is needed for individual members then please do move on to the next venue, otherwise please

try to enjoy the performances of the other teams sharing your venue. There is nothing worse than performing last at a venue

when all the other teams have left and the atmosphere goes flat!
