Auditions

Our All Star Team is comprised of talented varsity-level pommers from all over the state of Michigan! Auditions take place every summer at various Mid American Pompon events in preparation for the upcoming performance season.

Pre-Requisites

The only pre-requisite for All Star auditions is that all candidates must be current members of their high school’s varsity-level pom or dance team, and that team must attend one of the following MAPP summer events:

  1. Overnight Camp
  2. Commuter Camp
  3. Day Camp

Application

  1. Interested candidates that meet the pre-requisite start their application process by submitting their Tryout Fee.
  2. After submitting the tryout fee, candidates will receive an email with the All Star Application.
  3. The All Star Application must be completed 1 week prior to the start of that candidate’s camp session.

Audition

  1. Overnight & Commuter Camps:
    • At an overnight camp, the audition routine is the Day 1 Advanced Routine*
    • This routine is instructed by MAPP Staff on Day 1 of camp
    • Candidates audition in the morning on Day 2 in groups of 4+
    • Each candidate is evaluated by a member of MAPP Staff
  2. Day Camps: 
    • Since Day Camps are only attended by one individual team, the process is slightly different.
    • The audition routine is the Day 1 Advanced Routine*
    • This routine is instructed by MAPP Staff on Day 1 of the day camp
    • Candidates from day camps will audition in small groups at Mid American Pompon Studio in Farmington Hills, MI on the same date, normally in mid-August.

*If a varsity-level team has chosen to learn intermediate routines instead of advanced, candidates from those teams are able to audition for the All Star Team using the Day 1 intermediate routine. These candidates will follow all other steps of the above processes.

Registration

Once a candidate has been named as a member of the All Star Team, that candidate will receive an email with registration instructions. Registration must be completed by the deadline stated in this email, normally end of August.

Registration includes a fee of $40 per All Star. Once the registration has been completed, the candidate has officially become a Mid American Pompon All Star!
