Why Perform At Basketball games

At my school, the dance team performs at half time during basketball games. We don't perform at all the games but at a few we do. It's really fun and exciting to perform at games because it's more relaxed than competitions. It's still nerve racking to have your classmates stare at you and watch you but it's more fun to perform for people you know than just a random group of judges.

Entertainment during the halftime of basketball games is  important because it gives us an opportunity to perform but also let's other people see what the dance team is and what we can do. To show what we've worked so hard on and for. People only really associate the dance team with basketball games or pep assembly's . They don't ever watch or care about our competitions because they're not at school or on school days. It's good to get people aware of the dance team so we can be supported just like every other sport and to get people aware so we can get sponsors and such to support financially.

It's good to show off occasionally especially if you're really proud of something, but it's also the dance teams job and as a dancer to entertain and to perform for people. So performing at basketball games is very necessary for the dance team and for the dancer. It gives and gains more performing experience for the whole team, as well as each individual dancer. Basketball games are super fun and easy to perfo at. It's a relaxed time for the dancers, at my school anyways, because the competitions are done and it's a nice reward for a hard season. At our basketball games we perform the routines we've been competing and working on for the majority of the year, but also learn new routines to perform as well. We learn a hip hop to perform at a basketball games and that's a little bit more relaxed than performing our competition routines. In all performing is our job and entertaining is our goal.
