Teenagers from Oldbury Sports College danced away with a host of awards from the ZigZag dance-off at this year’s Leisure Industry Week. 

Youths from the West Midlands school received all five titles up for grabs to be named player of the day, best scoring team for each track and best scoring team across all three tracks. 

The dance-off took place on the ZigZag stand at Leisure Industry Week on Tuesday 23 September, when the 11-15 year old dancers battled it out to three tracks of increasing difficulty on ZigZag’s second generation Xer-dance platforms. 

The winning team scored well into the 90% range on all three titles.   Nadine Bullock, 15, winner of the ‘player of the day award’, scored an astonishing 97.5% on the second song, Csikos post.   

Fergus Ahern, Director of ZigZag said:  “The young dancers were very excited and nervous before entering the competition.  But they had an excellent time and all have said they can’t wait until next year’s challenge!” 

Sarah Connelly, Head of Dance at Oldbury Sports College said: “ZigZag’s dance mats are an excellent tool to get children to exercise, either in a competitive or non competitive way.  All the pupils involved in the competition and using the equipment at LIW thoroughly enjoyed themselves.”
