2020 FFCC Interns Wanted
We are looking for Marketing Interns to help grow the FFCC this season! In general, we are looking for college-level interns, aged 18 and above, who would like to help build the FFCC’s presence online and in the community. You must be available for training and some pre-season work from home in November & December, but the primary internship responsibilities occur during the season, January through April. While we prefer interns who are not currently affiliated with a team and who are not currently performing, we are willing to discuss your commitments based on your desired role. We do prefer interns with a knowledge of our activity, and especially former performers who would like to give back to the activity.
To apply, please read the descriptions of available positions below, and then fill out the application below no later than Sunday, September 22nd.
All interns will be required to complete a background check via the FFCC staff background check process.
All internships are unpaid, but receive the following benefits:
- Can be for credit if your institution allows. Please provide us with any necessary information as soon as possible.
- Badge for admission to all FFCC 2020 Season shows and championships
- FFCC Staff attire
- Staff meals at all shows to which you are assigned when available
- Mileage reimbursement per the FFCC staff policy
- Lodging at championships if available (championships staffing schedules are determined in February)
Business Development/Fundraising Intern
- Help grow the FFCC! We are looking for go-getters to help engage businesses, individuals, and teams in the FFCC’s scholarship programs and championships program advertising. The right candidate has experience with email, writing, cold-calling, and basic knowledge of approaching businesses for non-profit support. This is a great opportunity for business, marketing, non-profit management, development/fundraising, and sales majors to gain experience and build their resumes.
Videography Intern
- Are you a great videographer with stellar editing skills? Help us with montages, advertising, and celebrating the successes and stories of our teams throughout the season! Please be prepared to use your own equipment and editing software. Ability to communicate via email in a timely manner, meet deadlines, and attend some competitions is required. You must have or be able to arrange your own transportation.
Media & Communications Interns
- Help tell the stories of the FFCC throughout the season by helping to facilitate our Snapchat Takeover Program, Featured Performer Program, New FFCC Blog, and more! Exceptional organizational skills are required, along with proficiency in Gmail, Google Forms, Snapchat & other social media platforms, basic graphic editing knowledge, and stellar writing skills. Knowledge of The BAND App is also helpful, but not required. While some attendance at shows may be necessary, these positions do not require weekly attendance during the season, but do require a substantial amount of work during the week throughout the season that can be completed from anywhere.

2020 Registration is Now Open!
Registration is now open for the 2020 FFCC Season! We’re excited to welcome our new and returning teams to the FFCC for our largest season yet, and our 35th annual FFCC Championships in Daytona Beach. Please read this update thoroughly for a hassle-free registration experience.
All teams, including returning members, need to register for the 2020 season before proceeding with online payment. There’s a handy how-to guide at the bottom of this post to help you.x
New this year! You can purchase professional development courses at registration! Our partnership with E-Adjudicate allows you to purchase training courses for your staff as part of your registration. If your booster organization or school wants to purchase these for you, just add them to your cart! You can also pay separately at any time.
Super & Mega Pass Add-Ons
Don’t forget you can only purchase Super & Mega Pass additions to your registration with your initial registration.
Super Pass: 5 additional staff/chaperone passes for Premiere, Focus (perc/winds) & Championships events (not regular season events)
Mega Pass: 10 additional staff/chaperone passes for Premiere, Focus (perc/winds) & Championships events (not regular season events)
Here are some important deadlines to note:
August 25th:
The Initial Membership Meeting takes place on Sunday, August 25th at 2:30pm at Cypress Creek High School. At this meeting, you are able to select shows if you have completed and paid for registration, and have a representative present. Teams attending this meeting will also receive valuable information for starting the 2020 season. While attendance at the meeting is not required, it is the only way to guarantee that, providing you are registered and paid, you will get into the shows you want, and be included in the first draw for show seeding. Teams not in attendance may still register and pay, but will be in a later draw depending on the date of registration, and will be added to the waiting list to any shows that have already reached capacity. Your representative at this meeting does not have to be a voting delegate, and you may represent more than one team, but you are responsible for getting information to the teams you are representing.

November 1st:
Registration fees increase.
December 15th:
All rosters and insurance information must be uploaded to your team profile by this date, or you lose your priority seeding, and are withdrawn from any contests. Once this is rectified, you are added back based on availability, meaning you may be placed on a waiting list if shows are at capacity. Rosters & insurance documents protect you as instructors, your schools, and the FFCC. It is vital that these documents are uploaded on time. Changes can be made throughout the season when necessary, but your initial document must be uploaded by December 15th.
Independent Teams: Roster (list of names) and Insurance Verification
Scholastic Teams: Scholastic Eligibility Form (ours or WGI’s) signed by your principal. If you have students from multiple schools, you must complete the Scholastic Eligibility Form AND the FFCC Multiple Schools Form.

Senior Medals:
Order your Senior Medals ASAP
In an effort to streamline the senior medal ordering process, senior medals may be purchased with your registration, or ordered anytime online, with a check or credit card, between now and December 15th. After 12/15, the only time to purchase senior medals will be at Will Call at Championships, while supplies last. Entering your number of seniors at registration is not the same as paying for senior medals. Everyone enters their number as an estimate for us, but you have to pay via the invoice generator/check or credit card for them to actually be ordered and guaranteed for you.
To order, go to your team profile!
Director’s How To Guides
The FFCC staff has worked to provide you with painless how-to guides on our YouTube Channel to make registration easier. Please take a few minutes and review these short videos so you have all the information you need to complete your team’s registration.
