Orange Blossom Ball

Dancesport at UCR hosts the Orange Blossom Ball each year, organized by our dedicated and talented advisors, Fook Tham and Virginia Barbour

The 9th Annual 2012 competition will be in April 14, 2012
The entry form deadline is TBA .
Hope to see you there! Click the below graphic for more information on the OBB:


Why you should compete!
  • It's fun (even if you're not interested in being a hardcore competitive dancer)!
  • It's a great opportunity to get dancing experience and see lots of other dancers in action--from newcomer up to championship level!
  • Represent your team!
  • Hang out with and get to know your fellow teammates and watch and/or participate in the team match (a collection of "silly events," such as Cross-Dressing Cha Cha and Over-the-Top Tango, in which the teams compete against each other)
