Colorguard Registration Information
Thank you for your interest in the UMass Colorguard. We have a lot to do to get ready for our upcoming season, but there is nothing more important than finding new dedicated and talented members. The UMass Colorguard has a long history of excellence and professionalism and we hope that you can be a part of it!
All new colorguard members (flag, rifle, saber, dance) must either upload a YouTube video or send in a DVD of a solo routine performed to music of your choice. The goal is to showcase your talent level. If you are proficient in more than one piece of equipment please include those all in the routine.
This video is to determine proper placement within the colorguard and not a try out video. Please include, any body and dance elements, and be aware of your free arms and facial projections at all times. Routine length should be more than 32 counts and under 4 minutes. Make sure that you can perform this routine in a live setting as well as your video presentation.
Please send DVDs to:
