Please note:

  • The official minimum speeds of the sets were changed by CLRG in 2009, a rule to take effect from september 2010. The speeds in the list below have been adapted to this new ruling. Minimum speeds that have been changed, are indicated in bold.
  • The set dance "The Deep Green Pool" has been removed from the list of official CLRG setdances.
    "Planxty Hugh O'Donnell" has been added to the list in its place.
