Starting line

From DrumCorpsWiki

[edit] Definition

The starting line was the left-most part of the competition field or the end zone. Up until 1972 corps were expected to begin their show lined up behind this line.

[edit] Trivia

• This expression lives on at some shows where announcers introduce a corps that is ready for competition with: "On the starting line..."
