Bad Color Guard is Bad.

[@friendlyneighborhoodgoth]

Most likely learned it last minute. But my guard directer would have rather light us on fire than let us do that.

u guys should try this technique called "counting"

They probably were but the music was too loud to hear each other

[@boomboomboi7296]

@@Acosmist.ace. you can't count out loud cuz it would look weird they are supposed to count in there heads and knows what counts to go on

animegirl 21 but if one person speeds up on counts they would all be off...im in guard and were suppose to count out loud so we stay on the same track

[@spicynoodles3317]

Cue the entire trombone section yelling "PATRICIA!"

[@OddBanana11]

So, I can explain. there was ONE experienced guard member there, EVERYONE else was a first time marcher, including myself, this was our FIRST performance EVER, and our instructor was teaching 2 schools at once and was attending her own show at the same time. But now we're all good and stuff! :D

[@amandavogel7649]

This breaks my heart...

[@gitargirl14]

I liked everyone's solo. All 36 solos were perfect! :D

[@coconutghouleh]

my instructor would have a stroke looking at this

[@jeonghoonchoi5046]

That one girl who was actually counting must’ve been so embarrassed

[@Funkytreeleaf]

Did they learn the routine 30 minutes before or something lmao

[@alivia9735]

ikr XD

[@Explorewhatyoucan]

Sai Earth even if they did they should still be kinda good. my director does that to use but we are still good

[@michigacha5808]

LOL you’re right. Not hard whatsoever

[@skylarfarmer6332]

Sometimes my teacher teaches us stuff before a competition But we are still good

[@sunflower4500]

Honestly, I think our team could've learned that in the same time frame and put a few 45's in there lol. But again, there are a ton of veterans, so I guess that doesn't count lol.

[@yepthatsbailey]

Wow, that was alot of ripples.

[@serenademeplease]

yepthatsbailey I was thinking the same thing lmao

[@kalliesmithie]

😂😂😂😂 that was by far the best comment

My poor guard heart hurts from this so bad, it’s easy to count even giving like shout outs helps too.

[@camishiahipolito9674]

Totally agree. I almost cried out loud.

[@imkindagayngl4980]

I’m the color guard team captain at my school. I swear to ALL THAT IS HOLY, this hurt me deeply. Counting people, counting!

[@kaitlinm8053]

OMG this is why you need to count and wtf w the outfits like ew

[@jessicabradshaw6198]

the real kat I agree that they do need to count, but don't go hating on the outfits, you probably wore worse.

[@auranio.o]

I feel like there wearing scrubs

[@berk7513]

Ok I'm in colorguard and seriously if you count in your head you will all be on time and also that one girl didn't even know the routine.

[@ladybuglarsen3707]

I'm also in guard!!!!

[@camishiahipolito9674]

My guard instructor would have hung us with the damn flags. OMG!!!

[@sarsmiles]

Trust me, members of the band hated them more than you can imagine

[@xxUndefindedGirlxx]

no one was counting

[@haileylong7795]

This is why we count my instructor would have a heart attack if we did that and didn’t count

[@smallestrabbit8126]

Did they learn counting or did they throw them in there to fend for themselves and what is with those outfits they look like they all got stuck in a big bowl of cotton candy it's just not right

[@HHislove]

My band director would have had a heart attack if this happened with our guard!

[@bloodylovescrime]

Im screaming in my head COUNT, COUNT NOW!!

[@MekaylaMccauley]

So I really want to know who was actually on count bc I couldn't tell 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

[@andybecks1886]

They made it really obvious that they were watching each other

[@mdtayl24]

That was absolutely terrible!!! I am a colorguard instructor! AND as an instructor, I would not have let that go on! Can we say RIGHT SHOULDER ARMS!!! Period! End of story! Good grief!

[@fuhajin]

Those ripples though 👌🏼

[@solarprncss]

when your director puts in new work the day of the show

[@RS187g]

They make flags/colorgaurd look horrible! :(

[@sheagaier7582]

They're either a new team in general, have mostly new students, or this was all last minute

[@1Riverside]

Omg the horror if We perform like that are Colorguard director would leave out of Embarrassment

[@OddBanana11]

@cj1lorenz 1) We understood to count.Our instructor never helped clean our work to counts though. So, it was 'around' the right counts for everyone. Hence the failure.2) huh. Tons of color guards full of newbies. Well, well, well. That's a new one on me. We had ONE old member.Oh what the heck, might as well through this in.3) THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A PERFECT PERFORMANCE.for 16 newcomers and one veteran, we did good. Of course it was terrible, but everyone's first performance has many faults.

[@pinklishis866]

i feel like my color guard instructor would shoot us all

[@kylee9506]

Ummm...counting? Looking with peripherals? Holding the flag and silk properly? Communicating with your neighbor is you're lost? All thing they *COULD* be doing!

[@aydenpreston5508]

Oh my Jesus if my coach ever saw us doing that he would quit...immediately.

[@leahcooper4185]

The outfits look like something a school nurse would wear

[@MarchingBandGeek96]

0:06 DON'T PUSH NOR TOUCH A BAND STUDENT WHEN THEY ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF PLAYING! THEY COULD CHIP A TOOTH OR BREAK A REED! OAGHIAOO

[@N.Martinez93]

It doesn't help that the band sounds absolutely horrible.

[@ColorGuitarChick1995]

@michellelovesgummys yeah! My school too! and it takes a truely dedicated person to stick with it

[@mdtayl24]

WTF!!!!!! THIS WAS TERRIBLE!!!!!! As a guard coach, I would have told the band director the guard was not ready! ick! Spit! Gross!

[@hellolear7796]

My couches would not let us touch a flag again if we did that😂😂😂

[@anitabaker-velez60]

So when I was in color guard years ago. I remember always having to count. Counting is like important. And well these girls didn't count. All off and makes them look bad.

[@rifleboypa]

some nice drop spins and slams always work nice for those little football things... no one knows as long as the flags go around..

[@scechal]

(from 38 years a CG coach) School Songs need to be so basic that you can do them in sleep...angles, angles. snap snap, no one is watching you, you are adding to the arrival of the team. School Spirit. Too much junk trying to be done here 16 counts of this, 16 counts of to use as a warm up. Many schools make you learn the school song as part of the tryout in the spring. Why some squads want to make up a new school song every 3 years is beyond me. TRADITION works... or stand at attention!

[@farelimm]

O GOD THE HORROR

[@tinango9149]

Omg as a first year vet in color guard I cringed so badly I couldn’t finish it without skipping through. COUNTING IS SO IMPORTANT. Like did they just learn it right before they got on the field. My instructors would never let us put something on the field if is looked so wrong and bad. I’m not saying we are perfect but if they think it should go on the field it’s because it’s mostly in time and clean enough to be on the field.

[@GERONIMOO0]

Ohhh. If it was our guard instructor and captain would have made us run and do push once we got off the field! o.o

[@DarbyGuardling7887]

that's what COUNTING is for. goodness.

[@aishope95]

Ya this year our. Guard season didn't go 2 good we went through 5 instructors and we had our routine redone. 10 time we were so confussed at our 1st football. Game cause we had made our 1st routine just 4 days b4 out 1st game but in the end it turned out great

[@ImTotallySummer]

this is why its so important to learn counts people!

[@therebelmage1914]

least their not cheers... at a 9/11 football game a cheerleaders cellphone went off. During a ceramony...

[@mooseli4180]

This is why we count :)

[@sarsmiles]

@AlexaFreak053 No, they were honestly that terrible. We actually lost a competition because of them. Won first in everything except CG and still lost the Grand Prize. It was a frustrating year.

[@JenChenKid]

count count count count COUNT COUNT COUNT COUNT COUNNNNNNTTTTT @_@ if my guard was like this, our instructor would automatically quit his job.

[@mikplstarling1]

Tell it like it is... I was on a colorguard where we didn't have an instructor for a month... We were still clean as fuck thank you very much.

[@alecsivy]

THOSE OUTfITSSSSS

[@varcasno]

if i were that bad by field season i wouldve been cut during tryouts tbh. smh. this years freshman are better than our seniors were their freshman year. my eyes are bleeding, there was no counting, the outfits were horrible and that routine was garbage thrown together 5 minutes before they had to perform.

[@iK0llegeKyd1911]

OMG! THAT WAS A FAILURE TO THE MAX! Smh! WOW!

[@The1007516]

dude! it really is hard to learn that stuff! like legit im in color guard you cant judge we where all bad our first time! we get nervous im a freshy and i can promise you it really is hard stuff! well not really anymore but yeah!!!! they dDIDNT suck it just wasent there best performance!

[@Lo_Re_Mi]

If this was my guard we wouldn't have even gone out on the field we would have spent ALL 4 quarters practicing for the whole season.

[@Mollyomg]

@OddBanana11 my instrutor teachs 4 different guards at the same time all across the state and over half over my guard was new and all of didn't know how to use a rifle but ONE person i know how you guys feel just tell your guard to yell the counts and think postive!!

[@cj1lorenz]

Not everyones first performance has as many faults as these. Look at the best marching bands and color guards in the country. their first performance has EXTREMELY FEW flaws

[@keirais232]

It hurt that they weren't together like my coach would be all over that

[@haileygarcia4692]

Jesus didn't know I would be watching a short comedy sketch. My director would rather us be trampled with rifles than perform.

[@Guardianmoon109]

Ok currently a 5 year color guard veteran. I can it’s full of newbies and it seems like they had just learned the routine. And hearing the band is hard. Most of the time I’m shouting out counts so my guard knows where we are. Piece of advise for any guard director try adding words to the counts it’s helps a lot.😀

[@scechal]

@lifehappieness101 I did when I saw them in the catalog (ALGY) two years ago.

[@ashleybridges6484]

My eyes have been violated

[@fmedina719]

Well if they were going for a wave effect, they would have succeeded!

[@MillenniumForceLOVER]

The thing that's most sad f that y'all weren't even moving around! It's okay thought I wasn't the best on my guard

[@_.exanova._]

My coach would be so pissed...i hope they improved

[@cj1lorenz]

The best bands dont make excuses, thats the ONLY diffrence between this and the best. thats all im saying, should never make excuses

[@matttracy3811]

This hurts to watch.

[@Brunettesrbetr5]

Was it just me or is that the guard from POPCORN CITY, USA?

[@cheyne7526]

I felt pain after watching that

[@dct90210]

They should have just done cones or up down and called it a day 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@AR-ih5gq]

Alright let’s sum up the problems. 1. Have you ever heard of the term “counting” before? 2. This looks like they learned this routine 10 minutes before performing. 3. Omg those outfits. Seriously. It looks like cotton candy dipped in unicorn crap. Ok bye

[@OddBanana11]

You're comparing us to the best marching bands? Yeah, that's fair. Sorry, my bad.

[@Darealx]

im guessing it was suppose to be a ripple effect ! XD

[@babegirlist]

Not only wpuld my instructor shoot us and torture us but our directors and percussion director would to and tell us to go be cheerleaders and make us run about 3 miles and do alot of pushups yeah if we did that we are screwed

[@adoshe81]

To be honest i loved it it was Cute ... We all have our first times and it quit fun and scary and for the haters hating on this clip come one they are cute at least the flags where moving... Keep it

[@Calderajen]

Im not a huge fan of these videos. When i was a freshman, our coach was crazy and we learned a new routine every week. And most of the time, we would learn it within hours of the performance. I know that if this was my colorguard from 3 years ago, I would be mortified that someone put it on KZbin and titled it "epic colorguard fail".

[@NeTxGrl]

Oh well, shit happens. So besides that, whereabouts did this take place? It looks really pretty there.

[@maddieebobaddiee]

@w00tuser101 we're better this year! haha don't worry :D

[@lordofmacedon97]

My band instructor would start yelling like crazy. You guys wouldnt survive him. That was really bad. The band wasnt that good either but i really cant tell cause the sound was messed up on my computer. Thats why the awsome clements ranger marching band and color guard starts a month before school. WHOS HOUSE?!?!?!?!?! C's HOUSE!!!!!!!!

were you guys supposed to have different work?? >.>

[@skylarblair9687]

what if they’re just really good and everything is supposed to be a ripple like that

[@jonnah2014]

Okay I don't see how they could be counting and been off. ALL OF THEM. Two we had 3 vets and 35 newbies and we won first place in every comp we entered. And only twice in a performance we were off.... Stop making excuses COUNT, know what your MOVES. and I will say this again COUNT TOGETHER!!!!!!

[@charityzimmerman7169]

The work in this video isn't clean, but that isn't what disgusts me... What is worse is the level of disrespect from other, obvious, guard people. Dear lord folks! You are being more catty then a group of bratty, self-important cheerleaders!! You don't know their story. You can't tell how their instructor was. How can we expect other people to respect our sport if we cannot respect it ourselves?! Smh...

[@12drrainbow]

thats a damn shame.

[@Star_Girl9967]

Ok I am in color gaurd and I gotta admit... this is pretty tragic. Now, color gaurd is not easy my any means and I’m sure that routine was hard, but they were all doing different moves, like I understand a beat or two behind but come on
