Oklahoma City – The Oklahoma City Thunder will host a preliminary audition for the 2017-18 Thunder Girls dance team on Saturday, June 24, at the INTEGRIS Blue Development Center in Edmond. To prepare for the audition, six optional prep classes will be held in May and June.   

Each two-hour prep class includes a warmup, across-the-floor technique, choreography, audition tips and question-and-answer sessions with Thunder Girls Manager Paige Carter. Prep classes are $15 each and will take place at the INTEGRIS Blue Development Center. Registration will begin 20 minutes prior to each class.   

Participants must register in advance for the preliminary audition on June 24. Registration costs $30 and is now open at okcthunder.com/auditions. Participants must be 18 or older to audition. Current Thunder Girls wishing to stay on the dance team are required to re-audition.
