Do you have what it takes to be a drilldancer?

Werribee DrillDance Club is on the lookout for new members, young and old, to boost its ranks ahead of hosting the DrillDance Australian Championships in April 2019.

The group, which started out in 1953 as the Marching Girls, has evolved over the years to include dance, prop and drill-team routines as part of the repertoire and today includes about 40 members from kids to adults.
