Color Guard

The color guard is a non-musical section that provides additional visual aspects to the performance. The marching band and color guard performance generally takes place on a football field while the color guard interprets the music that the marching band  is playing via the synchronized spinning of flags, mock rifles, or other pieces of equipment, or else through dance. A color guard can also perform without a marching band. This is usually referred to as "winter guard" or "indoor color guard." A winter guard performance takes place in a gymnasium or arena, and the color guard performs to recorded music instead of a live band.
