ALL SQUAD UPCOMING DATES:
Basketball season is quickly approaching. We will be sending out a google form after basketball tryouts so that we can get everyone's preferences in regards to cheering at boys' games (Mondays and Wednesday) vs. girls' games (Thursdays). We will do our best to accomodate everyone's preferences.
Downtown Christmas Parade (December 12).
INJURIES: If you are injured during cheer, we recommend utilizing our outstanding atheltic trainers at the high school campuses. You can book an appointment using the links below (select the high school campus you are zoned for).
A few general reminders:
PRACTICE: All girls should be in the gym, running through the warm up at 11:11 am. There will be conditioning if you're late, so be sure you're on time. We will then roll mats up at 11:52 am every day.
HYDRATION: Drink lots and lots of water...the day before the game as well as the day of the game. It's important to stay hydrated!
NUTRITION: Eat a healthy breakfast and lunch, especially on game days. Don't skip meals! Your body needs the fuel!
