We note quite a few younger boys beginnin with Irish dancing. Often mothers interested in Irush dancing encourage them to participate. And often if they have sisters in Irish dancing they also have a hanhd at it. We see the children vegin to participate at about age 6 years. The largest number of boys seem o be in this younger group. Og=ften biys have a hand at it regardless of their actual skills and abilitirs. Thise boys who do not develop some prifessiency rapidly drop out of the competitions, especially by about 10 years of age or a little older. There is far more competition among the girls, even at ages that many if the boys are dropping out. . Older than this it is primarily the boys competing in the championship competitions that continue with it. This is especially the case of teenagers.
