My Daily Shuffle Issue 2, 2016
Intervarsity
On May 5 th, MDS members made their way to the city to dance it out with Melbourne University and RMIT to compete for the title of the best dancer for Ballroom, Street Latin and Swing. It gave a great chance for students from all three universities to show off the skills they had been working on in classes. Coming in at second, MDS pulled together an impressive effort, coming only 11 points behind Melbourne University despite a smaller numbers of competitors. Congratulations to everyone who competed, and thank you to everyone who came along to support them!( Also, a big shout out to the cheering squad that supplied hungry competitors with snacks and applause!)
