WELCOME TO
The National Shag Dance Championships
The National Shag Dance Championships ("NSDC")
The NSDC started in Myrtle Beach in 1984 and is the longest continuously running shag dance contest in the United States.
The NSDC is the past winner of two “Feather Awards” for best swing dance event in the United States.
In addition to hosting the annual contest, the NSDC established the “Beth Mitchell Memorial Scholarship” in 1998 to annually assist in the education of a deserving college student who is a current or past contest in the NSDC, or whose family has competed in the NSDC. The scholarship foundation is classified as a 501c3 for tax deductions. Scholarship recipients are announced each year at the Finals of the NSDC.
The NSDC is held over two weekends each year with the Preliminaries (Qualifying Round) occurring near the end of January and the Finals in early March. If you enjoy watching dance shows on TV, then you should attend the NSDC and experience the excitement of a first class dance competition in person.
