WGI Percussion and Winds World Championships!
Congratulations to all the talented performers and staff who took the floor at WGI Percussion and WGI Winds World Championships last week! We were proud to see so many current and former Bluecoats bringing productions to life either as performers or as staff members!
At WGI Percussion World Championships we cheered Broken City along as they achieved a record-breaking finals score of 98.850, winning Independent World Class finals. Bluecoats Percussion Caption Head Roger Carter works with Broken City during the indoor season and many Bluecoats percussion performers are members of the group. Congratulations to Broken City on such a rewarding season!
Bluecoats Indoor at WGI World Championships
On April 3, Bluecoats Indoor kicked off WGI week with one final rehearsal in Noblesville, Indiana. After the rehearsal, performers and staff drove to Dayton, Ohio for this year’s Color Guard World Championships!
Bluecoats Indoor started prelims day with a dance class at the Salsa City dance studio before heading to Hobart Arena for the rest of rehearsal. Performers then returned to their hotel to get ready for the show and eat a Bluecoats meal sponsored by Rida Asim’s mom, Tehniyet Hussain! Huge thank you to her and everyone else who sponsored a meal and helped to #FeedBloo throughout the season! We couldn’t have done this without you!
After getting ready for the show, performers headed over to the University of Dayton for their first performance of the week at 8:40 pm on Thursday! The next morning Bluecoats Indoor woke up and did it all again, taking the floor for semis at 3:30 pm on Friday. Thank you to Shenendehowa HS, Phoenix Independent, and Stoneman Douglas Color Guard who helped us get on and off the floor during finals week!
