Both the competition and performance girls came together for this routine.  They learned it at camp.  Only the competition girls performed it at camp, but for basketball season the entire team joined in.  We were missing two girls the night of this game.  This dance was performed at the Girls Basketball game, Central vs. Bettendorf.

This kick routine the girls learned and performed for a football game.  We changed the song to "Jingle Bell Rock" and rearranged things to perform it again at a basketball game before Christmas Break.

"feel this moment" - kick

This kick routine was part of the material taught at MA Dance Camp in the summer.  Non of the team actually learned this routine at camp.  We found it on the DVD given to us and thought it would be a good challenge.  They learned this routine and performed it at the last football game of the season.

We performed "Bang Bang" at the home football game

Some girls learned this at MA Dance Camp in Des Moines this Summer, and came home and taught it to the group. We performed "Hello" at the home football game on September 20th.

Pre Game Performances

This year we took on a new challenge and decided to perform with the band during pregame.  Here is a look at our different pregame performances.

"We came to smash" - Fall Sports Kick Off

Some of the girls learned this routine at MA Dance camp over the summer and came home and taught it to the rest of the team.  We performed it at Fall Sports Kick off in August at Brady Street Stadium.
