The National Country Dance Circuit is a comprehensive point-tracking system for Line Dance, Country Swing, Two-Step, and Traditional Progressive Jack & Jill competitions, designed to bring transparency and integrity to the competitive dance journey. The official relative placement scoring software for the National Country Dance Circuit is Danceplace.
Year-end NCDC buckles are awarded based on points earned throughout the season. Dancers accumulate points by competing at NCDC-sanctioned events. At the end of each year, the overall points leader in each dance style—both as a Lead and as a Follow—receives an official NCDC Belt Buckle.
