The color guard at Spanish Fort High School is a part of the marching band and music program. During football season, the color guard is an integral part of the marching design, color palette, and musical interpretation of the show. The guard uses props and equipment, along with movement, to express dynamic passages in the music accompanying the marching band show. By using flags, sabers, rifles, swing flags, and other pieces of equipment pertaining to the music, as well as a mix of ballet, jazz, modern, and contemporary modern dance, the color guard interprets the music into a stunning visual element. The SFHS Color Guard performs during football games at halftime and at competitions. During competitions, the guard adds to the overall score of the band; however, the judges also give an individual score to the color guard for a category usually called auxiliary. Top-quality instruction is critical to the success of the color guard and allows success and contributes to the rich tradition of excellence. Our Color Guard instructors are Mrs. Amelia Dismukes and Ms. Mary-Mychal O'Rourke.  Members are selected by audition only. Color Guard auditions are held in late March/early April.
