Monday, Feb. 26
Practice at JD for state tournament 6:30-8:30pm.

Wednesday, Feb. 28
Practice at JD for state tournament

The state tournament is March 1-3 @ UVU


Tryouts are March 23.  Please do not wait until the last minute to try and get new skills.  You should be continually working on improving your skills. Those of you who would like to make the competition team need to have at least a standing and running back handspring and score within the same range as returning comp team members. JD competes in Co-Ed Intermediate Varsity Show Cheer.  The required tumbling for Intermediate divisions is jumps to handspring and running tucks.  We will consider candidates and returning team members who score high and are consistently throwing back handsprings with the expectation that you will push throughout the summer to get a tuck. The scoring rubric changed this year and tumbling skills need to be thrown by all team members at the same time to get credit.  We can no longer have girls throwing multiple tucks to make up for non tumblers. This change has reflected how we have placed at competitions this year.  We must adjust to be competitive next year.
