Drill Team
Drill Commander: C/LCDR Ethan Howell
​
Conway and the other nine high schools in Horry County have a drill team that uses military drill and precision movements for competitions against the fellow schools for trophies and other awards. We also provide a cadet Color Guard for the national anthem for football games and other school events.
Purpose of Drill
Drill is not a punishment or endless routine, but a leadership tool to build a sense of belonging and pride in each unit member.
Commanders use drill to:
a. Move units from one place to another in a standard, orderly manner.
b. Teach discipline by instilling habits of precision and automatic response to orders.
c. Increase the confidence of cadets through the exercise of command, by the giving of proper commands, and by the control of drilling troops. d. Give cadets an opportunity to handle individual weapons.
