Tryouts
Tryouts for the Blue Brigade team are held each spring. Tryouts consist
of a clinic at which hopefuls will learn a jazz and a kick routine as
well as stretching and dance technique. At tryouts the girls will
perform the two dance routines as well as their right and left splits,
pirouettes, and leaps across the floor. Tryouts themselves are closed to
outside observers and are judged by an independent panel of judges.
Prior dance experience is not a requirement . Girls grades 8th-11th are
encouraged to tryout.

Officer Tryouts
Officer candidates are expected to be leaders first and foremost. They
are expected to be on time to every practice. They are expected to be
continually working to improve their dance technique. They are expected
to work closely with the directors to lead the team and help the Blue
Brigade be the best that they can. In addition to these expectations,
they are expected to attend their classes and keep their grades up. They
are role models and are expected to act as such.
