Author: Last time attending
Subject: Attended a feis that did this. Dancer had a fault, was last in the comp. Announcer gleefully announced, "in such and such place is-" and dancer went up in tears, it was rubbing in the error. Asked the committee and was told the announcer always announces all places because he loves doing his "job" as announcer. Dancer humiliated nonetheless.
In reply to: Upset dad of dancer 's message, "Announcing all places at feis" on 13:30:36 01/18/26 Sun

  • Agree. Toughen up and it teaches a valuable lesson about winning and losing. Something that has been lost. My daugher had this happen and it was actually a good thing in the scheme of things. (NT) -- character, 01:45:02 01/20/26 Tue
