Update #1 - 2018 Texas Collegiate Twirler Audition Guide

Hello Texas Twirl Fans!

For those that caught the first post of the 2018 Texas Collegiate Twirler Audition Guide, you got to see our one stop shop for Collegiate Try-Out information. Our goal with this feature is to present as much audition information for Texas universities in one place as possible to at least make the process of knowing how to audition easier for our Collegiate twirler hopefuls. We hope it has been helpful!

If you have any information to update any of these listings, or have information for a University not listed, please email texastwirlcontact@gmail.com. We will be posting updates as new updates become available, and today we were able to add the Texas State University, Sam Houston State University, and University of Texas San Antonio information.

We also hope to be able to announce many of the Twirler selections for these Universities as the decisions are made, so make sure to stay tuned! You can always follow us here, but to make sure you are notified every time there is a new post, we also have a Facebook Page at www.facebook.com/twirlingiscatchingtx and can be found on Instagram @twirlingiscatchingtx.
