drum sticks

Hi. I am a member of my local marching band and we are trying to improve our marching discipline. Does anyone know the rudiments of lifting sticks. On the left foot should my right or left stick be raised etc.
will-i-am

as you place your left foot down your right stick should be down and when your right foot goes down your left stick comes down,

watch some videos of the royal marines marching

If you watch Royal Marines Bands there is consistency, we all do it the same (the correct way    ) and the others are the ones who get it wrong
