There really is no specific size that you have to be. As long as you are capable of marching drill while carrying the weight of the snare drum.
We have students anywhere from very small and under 5ft tall to larger build and 6ft tall.
If you are physically capable of carrying the drum and have the proper skills to play the parts then your size shouldn't matter at all.
