The San Diego Charger Girls are holding open auditions on Saturday, March 31 at the University of San Diego’s Jenny Craig Pavilion. Registration and check-in begins promptly at 9 a.m., followed by a preliminary dance audition starting at 10 a.m.
The Charger Girls are one of professional sports’ most exciting and competitive dance teams. In recent years, the very popular day-long dance audition has seen nearly 400 hopefuls from across the nation and overseas try-out for only 28 highly-coveted spots.
“We are one of the premier dance teams in professional sports and our auditions are always hotly-contested,” Charger Girl Director Lisa Simmons said. “We are always looking for a lot of energy and excitement on audition day. Applicants can expect a very competitive atmosphere.”
Charger Girl applications are only available on-line at www.chargers.com and applicants must be at least 18 years old. The application along with a $10 registration fee should be submitted via mail or hand-delivered no later than March 28. Women are encouraged to send a 5x7 (or larger) headshot and/or full-body shot with their application. Walk-ups will be accepted at the door with a $15 registration fee. Please make check or money order payable to e2k Sports.
Applicants are urged to arrive early, bring plenty of fluids and a light snack. A two-piece leotard and flesh colored tights/hosiery are required. Also, jazz, dance or athletic shoes are mandatory for the audition.
Judges will be looking for the brightest young talent with dance ability, crowd appeal and showmanship. Finalists can expect an interview and a final dance audition during the week following the audition.
Team members must have flexible schedules for twice-weekly rehearsals, games and public appearances prior to and during the season.
