Silsden All Stars majorettes are set to lose their training venue for three months at the height of their competition season while the Town Hall undergoes a £300,000 refurbishment.
Majorettes leaders fear that following the work, the hall will no longer provide enough room for all five of their teams to practise.
Troupe principal Wendy Maddocks said the town hall was the only building in town with several rooms, a long performance area and a high-enough ceiling for the girls to twirl batons.
The refurbishment could see room layouts change to make space for a lift and a new stage.
The All Stars have trained in the town hall for the past 22 years and use three rooms two nights a week.
