The UGA Majorette Line is well known for executing the toss, front-walkover and 3-baton as a line. There are currently 9 Majorettes and 2 Feature Twirlers, most of which have been or still are competitive in various twirling organizations. Our outstanding Feature Twirlers are well known for their dynamic gymnastics as well as multiple baton twirling abilities. Both the Majorettes and Feature Twirlers have held numerous State, National and even World Twirling titles over the past decade and continue to strive for excellence on and off of the football field. Every year the UGA Redcoat Band presents an Auxiliary Clinic in January, (known as Janfest) and then a Summer Auxiliaries Camp in June. Attendance at these events would be a great way to Learn about what is expected and required to be a part of the UGA Auxiliaries.
