Bachata Social French Cup (Pro)
Standings
A pilot in the Bachata Social French Cup
Divisions and points run this season in the Bachata Social French Cup only. It is a pilot, so the rules may change during the season as we learn from it. Other cups may adopt the system very soon. The goal is to have divisions and points in place across the whole Bachata Social World Cup, worldwide, for the 2027-28 season.
This cup with today's points
This cup was danced before divisions existed. Its 9 competitions are scored here with today's points table, and in today's system they would be the 1st Division. It is a replay to show how the system works: these points do not count.

Starting the season
Your division at the start of the season comes from your past results. The platform sets it when you register.
1st Division
You start here if ONE of these is true
- You reached the Final of an official direct qualifier of the Bachata Social World Cup
- You reached the Final of a Pro competition of the Bachata Social French Cup
- You danced the World Cup Finals
- In last season's Amateur competitions of the French Cup, you made a podium among 20 or more dancers in your role (the first five among 30 or more), or earned 20 points
- In an independent competition on the platform (outside the World Cup circuit), you made a podium among 30 or more dancers in your role, or the first five among 40 or more
2nd Division
You start here if none of them is
That includes everybody competing for the first time, and Amateur finalists of last season without a podium in a big field.
- The platform decides it from your results when you register. There is nothing to choose, and leaders and followers are placed separately.
Moving up during the season
There are two ways and one is enough: a podium or the points. Both are automatic, there is nothing to ask for.
Top 3
A podium
Finish 1st, 2nd or 3rd in a 2nd Division competition with 30 or more dancers in your role. From 40 dancers, the first five move up. You move up straight away, whatever your points.
or
20
20 points
Reach 20 points in the 2nd Division, with or without a podium. You are moved up.
- Moving up is automatic and happens when the Final is published. From then on you register in the 1st Division.
- When you move up, the points you earned in the 2nd Division stay in the 2nd Division table, with the mark "Now in the 1st Division" next to your name. In the 1st Division you start from 0 points.
- You register once for the event and the platform places you in your division from your results. You do not choose it.
- A division runs as its own competition when it has at least 8 dancers in one of the two roles, counted on the day. If one division does not, the event is danced as one competition with both divisions together. Even then the 2nd Division is ranked on its own: its best three are its podium, and they move up when 30 or more 2nd Division dancers of their role took part. 1st Division dancers score by their place in the whole field. From 40 2nd Division dancers of the role, its best five move up.
- Nobody moves down for a bad result. Leaders and followers have separate divisions and points.
What each result is worth
Finalists earn points. How many depends on the placing in the Final and on how many dancers of the same role danced the competition. With fewer than 5 dancers in a role there is a podium but no points.
| Dancers in your role | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Rest of the Final | Semi-final |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 to 9 | 3 | 2 | 1 | · | · | · | · |
| 10 to 19 | 6 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | · | · |
| 20 to 29 | 10 | 8 | 6 | 4 | 2 | 2 | 1 |
| 30 or more | 15 | 12 | 10 | 8 | 6 | 3 | 2 |
- Dancers who stop in the semi-final earn the points of the last column. The semi-final is the round before the Final, in competitions with three rounds or more.
Good to know
Rules of 11 November 2026. This is a pilot: they may change during the season, and every change will be dated here.
- Points start again when the cup is over, after its Final. Your division stays.
- The French Cup ends with two Finals in Paris, one per division. The World Cup Finals remain one competition.
- A place in the Final of your division is earned two ways. By result: the first three of a competition, or the first five when 30 or more dancers of your role took part. By points: 10 points in your division's table.
- If you qualify for the 2nd Division Final and then move up, your place moves with you: you dance the 1st Division Final, and your place in the 2nd Division Final goes to the next dancer.
- After one full season without competing, a 1st Division dancer returns to the 2nd Division.
- Very experienced dancers with no results in the circuit can ask to start in the 1st Division by sending a video, with the form at the bottom of this page. The World Cup committee reviews each request.
- After a video review of a result, the committee can correct the points and move a dancer back to the 2nd Division. Nobody moves down for a bad result.
- Two accounts for the same dancer? Write to us and we join their results.
- For now a division counts in the Bachata Social French Cup only.
