Parents or legal guardians must accompany all dancers to sign a waiver prior to the audition. Finalists may be asked to stay through 4:30 PM, so participants should be prepared for a full day of dancing.
What to Expect:
During auditions, young performers will be taught a short routine and evaluated on their ability to quickly learn and confidently perform choreography. Judges will assess technique, stage presence, and energy — all key qualities of a Nets Kids dancer.
Those selected will become part of the Nets Kids Dance Team, a high-profile group that performs at Brooklyn Nets weekend home games at the Barclays Center, wowing thousands of fans throughout the season. In addition to game day performances, team members will participate in weekly rehearsals held in Brooklyn, where they will continue developing their dance skills in a professional, supportive environment.
