Before 2010, Compulsory Dances were used, but not in every competition.
Prior to 2004, the IJS was not in place, and all competitions were judged under 6.0, so only placements are available as scores. For some competitions, only the final placements are available.

Competitive History
Before 2010, Compulsory Dances were used, but not in every competition.
Prior to 2004, the IJS was not in place, and all competitions were judged under 6.0, so only placements are available as scores. For some competitions, only the final placements are available.
