Auditions
Do I have to audition?
You do not have to audition! Sometimes we have a dance routine we may have you do to see your skill set, but that's the extent of our 'audition' process.
Do I need any background in the sport?
It can be helpful if you have a background in dance or cheer, but it is not required. You can join with absolutely no experience whatsoever!

You can join in middle school! The grades that are accepted in this colorguard are 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade.
