Trick Meet

Trick Meet (6 levels):

In Trick Meet, each twirler meets with a judge and performs 5 twirls. The judge evaluates the twirler's form and posture. If you receive a score of 4.0 or more on each twirl, you will receive a blue ribbon. A blue ribbon signifies that you have passed that level. Even if you have passed a level, you can enter it again if you want to. You can enter more than one level of trick meet at each competition.
