Minnesota Swarm Performance Team Tryouts

The Swarm have announced that tryouts for the Swarm Performance Team (SPT) will take place at CorePower Yoga in Minneapolis on Saturday, Oct 24. Ten women will be selected to the team and join Head Coach Tami Krause and new coach Allison Drusch for the 2010 season. Registration begins at 6:00 PM.

Krause enters her sixth season as Head Coach and Coordinator for the Minnesota Swarm Performance Team. For the past 12 years, she has also held that same role for Minnesota Vikings Cheerleading. A mother of three boys, Krause was a dance major from the University of Minnesota and is a former professional cheerleader.

Joining Krause on the coaching staff is first year coach, Allison Drusch, who brings her prior experience as a three-year member of the SPT and guest choreographer.

“We have so many new and exciting things going on with the Swarm this year and bringing Allison on board is another addition to the list,” stated Krause. “I can’t wait to see which 10 amazing women will gear up for the 2010 team.”

A mother of two girls, Drusch is also a former Vikings Cheerleading Captain and Pro Bowl Cheerleader. She also serves as a UPA Judges Coordinator for National Dance and Cheer Competitions.

“I’m looking forward to coming back to the Swarm in this new role. I loved every year of dancing with the SPT and am honored for the opportunity to share my passion and expertise as a coach,” explained Drusch.
