How does it work, if a bus does break down before a comp. in DCI? If the corps is late? What happens?

I've been trying to find a way to motivate my guard to PRACTICE more at home. There are times when they look realy good, and yet those times only happen onceapractice, or once every other practice. The problem realy comes down to the fact that Half of them practice, and the half that doesn't brings them down. One thing that came up into my head is that it has been Freezing up here- and they can't realy practice in there house's. We also have it so the captains can have "student ran" rehearsals right after school when needed, but at times I know nothing gets done. It get conf. after a while because they all want to be good, they all want to be there, they all want to get better. When the pressure is on them (practicing before a comp.), thats one of the only times that they all put in 100%. The same thing goes for out door as well. A lot of our problems come from a motivation stand-point, but we have tryed manny things and they havn't lasted long.
