Welcome!  Thank you for visiting our site.
We hope to see you at a practice soon!
Eastside Precision Drill Team
Eastside Precision Drill Team is an organization founded in March of 2007 for girls to learn and perform precision drill team.  We have a great
group of girls ready to welcome you to our family and join in the fun. If you're looking for a more dance-style drill team please give us some
consideration. The basic principles of drill team still apply and we have a lot of fun.

We currently have 16 members ranging in age from 7 to 17. As the name "Eastside" implies, you don't have to live where we practice in Redmond or
attend a specific school to join our team. Our team is open to girls from anywhere in the greater "Eastside" area and beyond. We are working on building
2 teams; junior (ages 5 up to 12 - Note - girls over 9 will be placed on junior or senior based on ability) and senior (ages up to 18). We have a great group
of junior marchers and are eagerly looking for more middle school and high school girls to build our senior team. Of course we welcome new members of
both Jr. and Sr. ages, so come join the fun!
We practice on Tuesdays 6-7:30pm
behind Redmond Elementary (we will be moving inside soon)
(16800 N.E. 80th St., Redmond)
Wear athletic shoes and comfortable clothes
Please call ahead and let us know you are attending a practice
as we occasionally have to move to another location due to school activities.

BENEFITS

Many studies have shown that girls who are involved in sports and other
team activities have higher self-esteem, more self- confidence, and are
less likely to participate in risky behaviors (crime, drugs, etc).   Our team
provides an activity that will build self-confidence and self-esteem.  Our
team teaches teamwork, respect for others (adults and peers), along
with responsibility for our actions.  We strive to appreciate each team
member for who they are and show them that they are valued as a team
member and as a person.


LIGHT ATHLETICS

We considered our activity to be light athletics with most kids of all ages
being capable of performing our style of marching with little difficulty.  
Kids will learn to march in rhythm with the team and coordinate their arms
with their feet while the team maneuvers into formations.


PARENTS

Parent participation is welcome at any level.  You do not have to come to
all the parades or organize events or chair fundraisers.   We do ask that
parents support the team with fundraisers that are adult only in nature.  
Our team has a few key support functions that require parent's help so if
you want to jump in we can give you something to do.  Like any team
activity, participation by the team members in practices and events is key
to building a team so at a minimum we ask for parents to make attendance
a priority.

Instructional Staff
Jennifer, Kelle, and Heather

Heather and her staff lead the team with their endless passion for
precision drill team.  While growing up Heather, Kelle, and Jennifer were
members of Seattle area teams and have never forgotten the lifelong
lessons that being part of a drill team taught them. Sportsmanship,
teamwork, responsibility, leadership, dedication, and community service
top the list of skills that help build the foundation of their characters.
Beyond the character building lessons, they will never forget the fun and
friendships they made along the way. They are all excited to share their
wonderful experiences with girls in their community and hope each
member will gain new friendships and life skills along the way. (See our
Instructional Staff page linked above).

In April 2009 we marched in our first competition! The Seattle Drill
Team Association's All City competition was held on April 25th 2009. This
was the first marching event for many of our team members and the
first competition for all team members. We are incredibly proud of our
girls, how they performed and how hard they worked to learn all the
counts, formations, and hand drills.  
Now, two years later, the team has come so far in their performance
skills.  Please check out our performance at the
2010 Seattle Drill Team Association's All City Competition
and more recently at the
2011 Eagles State Youth Convention Competition where we finished 4th.
