Each member will be assigned to 1 of the positions in the video. Section leaders and directors will assign marching spots. The drill sheets map the drill from the video. Each member will have a number that is assigned to a letter. The position of the letter on the drill page corresponds to a position on the field. Each square of the drill sheet equals 1 step. We will use the drill sheets to map our show during camp. DRILL SHEETS WILL BE PROVIDED AT CAMP, BUT FEEL FREE TO PRINT YOUR OWN.
