The Mini Force!!

🎶🎶 The Mini Force 🎶🎶
With the database growing constantly of young talented musicians and Drum Majors, this ties in nicely with a few opportunities that are in the pipeline. The ‘Mini Force’ is to showcase the future of Drum Majoring and with its first outing in a few weeks, this falls nicely with our nearly ready to launch next step! 🤩 A few sneak peaks recently may have been a give away! #WebsiteNews #TheMiniForce #TheForce #TheForceDatabase #150Members #Global
