Where can I download Marching Drill paper?

Post by MartyNeilan »

Just looking for something with the right lines and hashes for a high school field, to make a few sketches before doing it up on Pyware.
I know some sites have downloadable staff paper, but I have yet to find in my feeble search attempts a downloadable marching field.

Kinko's could do it, I'm sure.

maybe im wrong

but is that not really simple? I haven't ever bothered to count how many lines. but could you not just make a table in excel or something witht he right amount of lines each way?

If not, why not some sort of cad program? I have a feeling something like that take hardly anytime with autocad. Just make a line, then displace or copy it over and over.. and do the same for the yard lines..

but I dont' see why excel couldn't make something like this..

why not just print out a blank (no drill) page and photocopy that?

By the way... my H.S. euphonium student really enjoyed the Honor Band last weekend.

Get some graphing paper at a office supply store and line it out with that. You could make each block be 2 steps. Figure 4 blocks to five yards. 14 blocks (28 steps) from sideline to hash and in between.
