 Cloverleaf

Definition:
 

From a completed doubled pass thru formation: In single file columns of two, each column separates from the adjacent one walking forward in single file to loop around 3/4 of the way and come straight back into the set. Finishes in double pass thru formation. From a single couple facing out: Separate and loop around 3/4 of the way to walk straight back into the set. BACKGROUND NOTE: The original idea of Cloverleaf was embodied in a move called U-Trail Out by "Decko" Deck of Washington, D.C. The move has remained, but Decko's term has not.

Joe Prystupa 1963
