SHE GOT GAME, the World’s Largest International B-Girl Competition, is back in 2008! Once again the world comes to Australia to watch the world’s best female breakdancers, also referred to as B-Girls, battle it out for the ‘She Got Game’ title and the $5000 AUD cash prize for first place.

In this highly skilled and energy-fuelled dance, the B-Girls will ‘battle’ to win, judged on their ability to hit the beat of the music, their skills, and perhaps most importantly, their flavour and style. Be prepared to see fresh kicks, fresh outfits, and all the moves to match.

Confirmed for 2008 are world class competitors Peppa and Wenrock (USA), Taya and AT (Finland), Narumi and Shie-Chan (Japan), Bean and Naj (USA), competitors from Canada, Austria, as well as Australia’s best! Plus special guest B-Girl Beta (Street Masters Crew, USA) a member of last year’s winning crew, will be attending SHE GOT GAME to judge the competition and share her knowledge and experience in a free youth Hip Hop forum, B-Boy Red (Sydney) and B-Boy Kreate (Indonesia) will complete the judging panel.

SHE GOT GAME will also feature a collection of some of Australia’s finest musical and artistic talents. Mistery and MC Que will host the event, DJ Jumps will provide the beats for the early battles, and renowned Melbourne based funk band, The Bamboos, will be providing live tunes for the final battles. Moreover, the scheduled line-up for the day includes an impressive display of beat boxing, DJ sets by DJ J-Red and DJ CTB, a dance performance by Nomadic Funk, street art exhibition, and other activities.
