Dance Team
The University of Wisconsin Dance Team is a proud and respected group of collegiate student-athletes that support Badger athletics. The Dance Team performs at all home football and men’s basketball games, along with appearances at various Public Relation events and University functions. Typically, the UW Dance Team also supports the football team at one away game per season and at a Bowl game. Not only are the UW Dancers athletes, but they are also ambassadors that represent the University of Wisconsin. Since 2001, the Dance Team has consistently been ranked in the top ten at the UDA College Dance Team National Championships.
The Michigan State Dance Team is a part of the Michigan State Athletic Department. This team is made up of dedicated and talented dancers who wish to represent the university in a positive and spirited manner. As a member, they have the opportunity to perform at all home football and men’s and women’s basketball games, other home athletic events, as well as bowl games, the Big Ten and NCAA tournaments, and various community and alumni functions.
he Hutchinson Community College Dance Team was formed in the fall of 1961 and the first team was called the “Coettes.” This was around the time of the first college dance team out of Texas; “The Kilgore Rangerettes” was formed.
Alene and John Kline thought it would be entertaining to start a dance team at Hutchinson Community Junior College. So at a basketball halftime, a hat was passed and money was given to start the first team at Hutch.
