Moving onward, just yesterday (Sunday, Feb. 22) was the 2015 WGI Indianapolis Color Guard Regional Finals Competition and the scores are in! Just like every WGI competition, each color guard was judged and ranked in the categories of equipment analysis, movement analysis, design analysis, and general effect. Here below are the results with the total scores based out of 100 (for the sake of this blog I will only be focusing on color guards of independent class).

The same events were also held in Austin TX, Charlotte NC, and Riverside CA on Saturday the 21st for the color guards from other regions and the scores from those prelims and finals competitions can be found at wgi.org. Let us not forget though, this was just one show of many that each color guard will be giving during the rest of their performance tour. It all will serve as practice as they prepare themselves for the World Championships in Dayton, OH on April 18th.
