Who we are…

Being a Willis Sweetheart drill team member has been the highlight of many young ladies’ high school memories. It affords the opportunity for self-development in many areas; goal setting, high standards, morals, maturity, responsibility, dependability, and self-discipline. Members also learn the value of hard work, conformity, and sacrifice.

Commitment and dedication are required for all young ladies. Being a Sweetheart requires a sincere commitment from the family of a member as well. The family must be both supportive and positive. As a team member, the family is asked to join the Booster Club. Our Booster Club is highly organized, and it takes the full support of the Booster Club to keep our organization running smoothly. Our Booster Club is recognized as one of the outstanding parent organizations within Willis ISD. The Sweethearts Booster Club also plans and organizes many of our fundraisers. Parent support is essential to the success of this organization and we require active parent participation. Much is expected of both parent and daughter as a Sweetheart member. Although drill team may look glamorous from the outside looking in, there is a great deal of dedication and time involved in membership.
 

A Sweetheart must have:

	Dance ability, poise, flexibility, and presentation.
	An outstanding work ethic – being a Sweetheart is a major commitment of time and energy.
	Membership involves the entire family.
	Good grades and a good rapport with the teachers and administrators.

	Leadership ability – you will represent Willis High School and our community.
	The ability to follow rules. The Sweethearts are a highly structured organization. The Sweethearts are a successful organization due to its structure and regulations. There are a lot of rules to follow and our expectations/standards are high!
