2007 Dance Team Tryouts Announced
As members of the EC Dance Team we pride ourselves on being an integral part of the athletic community. You will be required to represent the College on campus as well as off.
Below is a brief list of rules and responsibilities each member must abide by.
1. All Dance Team members must be full time students and maintain a 2.0 GPA.
2. All dancers selected for the team are required to maintain their audition appearance or the recommended appearance after acceptance to the team.
3. All Dance Team members will be required to sign a contract agreeing to all rules and responsibilities.
4. Any Dance Team member under the influence of drugs or alcohol during a practice, game, event or function will be dismissed from the team immediately.
5. All Dance Team members will actively participate in fundraising projects.
The Endicott Dance Team is responsible for fundraising to offset many of our expenses. All Dance Team members will need to pay for some team clothing (around \$500) and other costs.
All of this is in addition to cheering on all our athletic teams here at EC! It is a huge time commitment but we guarantee if you put in 100% you will have an amazing experience.
