The collegiate raas circuit brings together garba-raas teams from across the nation to compete at the national scale. Competitions range from Raas All-Stars affiliated bid competitions to non-bid competitions. Teams apply to bid competitions in our fall quarter to be selected. We are incredibly grateful to now be attending bid competitions for two years, and to be a part of the Raas All-Stars affiliated circuit.
Bid competitions typically host 8 competing teams. Competitions consist of a weekend full of fun activities, including a mixer, rehearsals, the show, awards ceremony, and the afterparty. Placing teams will be awarded 4, 2, and 1 bid points for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place, respectively. RAS-affiliated bid competitions also offer monetary compensation for placing teams. Over the course of competition season, from late January to mid-March, teams accumulate bid points. The eight teams holding the greatest total number of bid-points will be offered an invitation to The Raas All-Stars National Championship, where they will compete for the title of ‘National Champions’.
