Training Camp begins! The newly elected training camp candidates are excited, even star struck, as they meet the veterans for the first time at Valley Ranch. At the first team meeting, anxiety ripples through the ranks when DCC director Kelli Finglass announces that a couple of the more seasoned veterans have failed the written test. Veterans come up short again during the body fat evaluation—some of them have put on weight, while the rookies test lean and mean. The vets’ experience finally shines through at the first dance rehearsals, while the newbie rookies struggle to learn the choreography. But veterans are warned they too are eligible to be cut from the squad this year!
