Subject: Taken from the Uk board - thoughts?! Is this true?

Lately it seems that the number of people wanting to sit the TCRG or ADCRG examinations seems to far exceed the positions being made available. There are probably financial realities influencing these decisions, but it can feel quite discouraging.
Many people are genuinely trying to stay involved in Irish dancing, continue learning, and contribute positively to the organisation and the next generation. When opportunities become so limited, it does make you question whether ongoing involvement is truly being encouraged or supported.
What also makes it difficult is the feeling that those who simply want to work hard, progress, and contribute positively are now experiencing reduced opportunities because of the well-publicised cheating scandals, disputes and court proceedings of recent years which have clearly had major financial consequences for the organisation. Many members had no involvement in those events, yet it appears as though the impact is now being carried by those trying to continue supporting Irish dancing in a genuine and positive way.
