The BCDC was founded around 1988. The first members included Marcus Hilton MBE, Donnie Burns MBE, Steve Powell, and Mark Parkin. The organisation was born due to the escalating problems competitors were facing around the world.

​

If you have a query or a problem as a competitor, the BCDC is designed to help you. They have two seats on the British Dance Council, (BDC) and are able to debate on all of today's dancing issues. They also have a seat on the International Professional Affairs Committee, which solely deals with competitive issues around the World. 

 

Their position on the BDC, entitles them to attend the WDC meetings, which cover the problems and issues of World dancing. Many of the  Executive Committee are also involved with the World Competitors Commission. The BCDC keeps it's members up to date with World issues and important changes that are happening in the ever-changing Dancesport Industry. 

 

The Executive Committee meet throughout the year, with their Annual General Meeting usually being held at Blackpool in November. If you wish to know more about the organisation, then please contact them  via the contact page on the website www.britishcompetitors.co.uk
