Hello Folks!

Unfortunately, PCBCA will no longer be competing at Elite 8 Bhangra Invitational this year. After careful deliberation based on multiple factors, we will not be having representation from a Canada West team this year.

However, stay tuned TONIGHT at 8pm EST as our final team announces themselves on our UStream Channel: Elite 8 Bhangra


Tickets are on sale NOW! Visit us at www.elite8bhangra.com for more information!

Nice! Congrats UNC Bhangra Elite! The prophecy of your team's name has been fulfilled!


Sad to see PCBCA drop out though.

elite 8s criteria for invites is so arbitrary and contradictory...also they ban teams for 2 years if they drop...so no jw and pcbca at elite for two years hurts elite, not those teams...

elite 8 is a good comp, but their confused selection process and announcement process is their biggest weakness...teams prepare sets to offset against other teams, and when those teams drop 5 weeks before the comp, u should replace them with a similar team, thats common sense. There are now 4 teams from 1 region at elite, and zero from another, thats just silly and shows a lack of foresight (or a desire to sell tickets). The regional nature of this comp is completely lost now, and thats a shame.

careful deliberation to ignore canada west? its prob more like no one was willing to accept this late, lets be honest.

three elite 8s, three nonsensical sets of selections. year of the wildcard, more like year of 4 us east teams.

smh.

on a side note: can the people involved with making PCBCA's mix make an elite 8 mix anyway? seriously one of the MAIN things i was looking forward to this competition was to hear what sick mix you PCBCA boys were gonna bring

congrats to unc, nice to see a college team in the lineup. very disappointed that pcbca and jw had to drop, was really excited to see what they brought, but the lineup is still pretty strong.
