The Verizon Center was full of excitement Sunday as dozens of energetic, enthusiastic young ladies came out to audition to be a Red Rocker on Sunday. Most fans think the Red Rockers are simply the Washington Capitals’ cheerleaders, but that is only partially correct. Certainly, they encourage fans to cheer on the team during home games; however, there is so much more to being a Red Rocker. It is an elite spirit squad. The team members act as ambassadors in the arena and throughout the community all year long. They represent the Washington Capitals organization, and that is why self-presentation, a positive attitude, and attention to detail are all crucial to being a team member, as is being a big Caps fan.
