Armed Drill

The Rio Grande High School Armed Drill Team is a precision drill platoon with the primary mission of displaying both traditional armed drill and armed exhibition drill. Cadets showcase their skills through a timed routine consisting of precise turns, pacing, bearing, intensity, and motivation. These high caliber cadets spend countless hours planning, choreographing, and practicing their routine for flawless execution.  

Traditional Armed Drill

TAD is steeped in traditionalism where every step, every pivot 

Armed Exhibition Drill

AED is an intense visual ride. Cadets showcase their mastery of rifle manipulation through tosses, twirling, stomping, smacking, and perfectly executed coordination all without ever flinching or dropping their rifle.

Mixed Drill

MD combines the fun and excitement of both armed and unarmed exhibition drill.
