• Special Teams

    Our special teams compete many times each year in different competitions against many different schools and JROTC programs.

  • ARMED DRILL:

    This special team is an armed drill team that competes in multiple competitions throughout the school year. Armed drill consists of an inspection team, regulation team, and an exhibition team. The inspection team competes in competitions in which the whole team is asked questions by inspectors and judged on their bearing, knowledge, and rifle manuals. The regulation team competes by completing a regulation sequence that consists of rifle drill and marching. The exhibition team competes by performing a sequence of marching and rifle drill, but the drill they use is not regulated and they are able to do many moves that would otherwise be prohibited (spinning rifles, tossing rifles, throwing rifles, etc.).
