Hey gypsy, first, congratulations on bluecoats win last night. It looked like a close competition for you and was very well deserved.

My corps has a long hard struggle ahead. After winning gold in DII finals last season, we made the jump to DI. Last night, we placed 9th out of 9, 20 points out. Overall, we are sitting in 53rd out of 58 DI corps, 24 points out, not a position we are accustomed to. We missed a day and a half of rehearsal due to travel....but no more excuses. We are aiming for a top 12 finish, and though it may seem against the odds, our members know what is required and are dedicated to achieving this.

gcurrier, thank you so much. While we have a long hard road to achieve the greatness of CLASS, we have a dedicated group of corps and directors who are excited at what the future holds for us. Having a nucleus group of directors who entered FMA in the same season, we have grown, learnt, and competed together since our arrival, constantly pushing each other to strive for excellence. FAME will be a league to watch.

We look forward to the head to head competitions with CLASS corps, as well as all FMA corps. Best wishes for another successful season with Nemesis and CLASS.

I agree gypsy. We have a great group of corps here at FAME to work with. While in only our first season of existence, most of us have come through the ranks together. We have big plans for next season, so bear with us through this inaugural one. If you ever need anything, feel free to PM either myself, Aaron, or AlanLovesMe (ALM). We are here for you guys as it is truely the member corps who make a league great.
