After-school rehearsals are held on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 4:25 PM to 7:50 PM on the football field. Football Games & Performances Most games are on Fridays, with occasional Thursdays.

Stadiums for football games will have random names such as Ricardo Stadium or Harris Stadium. Marching Competitions Competitions are held every other Saturday. Students must travel across the state to various stadiums, with travel times averaging 1–2 hours. Each competition begins with a prelims performance during the day.

Practices are on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays until 8:30 PM. Competitions take place on Saturdays from January through March or April. Participation is mandatory for all guard members. Student Leadership Each section—such as flute, trombone, or Colorguard—has a designated Section Leader. Section Leaders are expected to be responsible, punctual, and respectful. They must lead by example, maintain a positive attitude, and never force anyone to do anything. While they are authoritative and resilient in front of directors, many drop this facade when among students, revealing a more relaxed or different version of themselves. Every month on the 15th, all Section Leaders must attend a leadership meeting. These meetings cover the state of the band, student morale, discipline issues, and strategies to improve the program. Pep Talks At the end of each rehearsal, before every performance, and before the guard boards the bus for a competition, Aaron gives a pep talk to the guard and captains. After every rehearsal, Aaron gives out key updates and a shorter pep talk. Sasha and Courtney also regularly speak to the guard, offering feedback, reminders, or corrections based on how rehearsal went.
