Pacemakers team up with The Company for NFL 2016

Press release by The Pacemakers

Following the success of the 2016 DrumLine Battle, finalists The Pacemakers D & BC were approached by “The Company” to work on a project to see Drum Corps UK represented at two of the UK’s NFL (American Football) International Series of matches involving teams from the Los Angeles Rams and Washington Redskins on consecutive weekends in October. The Pacemakers extended drumline (Project 13) in association with The Company, performed as part of the Fans Tailgate pre-match warm ups at both Twickenham and Wembley, performing as 90,000 spectators made their way into the Stadiums.

Kieran Bartlett, percussion caption head for the Pacemakers said “It was great to work with The Company on this project, they had great faith in us and knew we would be able to deliver. The experience it gave our young members reminded us why we do what we do”. The Corps would like to thank The Company for their support in this venture and since the event The Pacemakers have launched a new logo for their drum line.
