Things to know….

 

*   Selection process…The girls will learn 3 jumps, (5-8) 8-counts to a dance routine, a cheer and 3 sidelines.  Tryouts will consist of 5 judges.  The highest and lowest score will be eliminated and then the remaining three scores averaged then ranked.  The girls will be judged on Jumps (pointed toes, height, appropriate prep/technique), knowledge of cheers/dance, proper arm placement, facials, voice projection, and gymnastics (roundoff or backhandspring). THEY DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE A BACKHANDSPRING TO MAKE THE TEAM.  Depending on how many girls tryout will determine how many we take.  Seven girls maximum will be selected for each team along with 2 alternates.  There will be 2 teams for each grade.  Each grade (total of 14 cheerleaders) will compete together at competition.

 

*   Results of the tryout will be posted on the website within a week of tryouts.

 

*   We will likely do one fundraiser to support the club.  We will do an additional fundraiser to help purchase some cheer items and/or gym time at the YMCA.

 

*   You will have 2 practices per week and cheer for 1–2 home games/week.  All home games are usually on Saturdays.  You will cheer at tournaments.  Home games are played at JE Prass Elementary.
