DCI World Champions
Back-to-back wins with one corps started the decade, the same corps achieve DCIs highest score as well as dominating the decade. There were two new Champions who emerged, and an old favorite returned to the top spot after a 30 year absence, yet, five Champions still even out this decade.
Every summer, the top corps in the country gather in one place to vie for the title of DCI World Champions. From DCIs Hall of Fame, I'm pleased to salute the latest winner and honor all those who have come before.
To be listed here is no small achievement. The following corps names reflect the efforts of many individuals. Who have worked hard. Struggled long, and achieved much during the 2010s.
