“The Girls had to work very hard because during the pandemic years they were not as much trained in drills compared to their Seniors before them, but we’re very proud of them for rising up to the occasion, and during each practice they really put all their heart and soul into it.” (Ms Sun, Teacher-in-Charge and Drill choreographer for participants from The 2nd P Coy)

Reflecting on the nerve-wracking but fun event, many GB Girls appreciated the opportunity to grow closer to their squad mates through training.

“Through this drill competition experience, we were able to bond more, so even if we don’t win, at least we get the experience and the sisterhood out of it.” (Simone Chew, Participant in the Senior Drill Competition from The 5th S Coy)
