Please make sure to remove the bow from your yard sign so it does not get damaged or disappear. If for some reason you did not receive a bow and yard sign and your number/initials are listed above, please let us know!

Schedule for Next Week

2020-2021 Tryout Update - May 26, 2020

General Precautions - The following precautions will be taken at all team practices, events, etc:

• Any drill, skill or conditioning that can be done with 6 feet of distance between cheerleaders will be done in this manner.  
• Coaches will have masks and use them as necessary.
• Hand sanitizer will be utilized at the beginning of tryouts/practice, between water breaks and any times deemed necessary.
• Cones will be placed around the edges of the practice area in order for the cheerleaders to know where to place their stuff (water, keys, pom poms, etc.) Cones will also be utilized when waiting in lines for warmups and tumbling drills in order to maintain 6 feet of distance between cheerleaders.
• Cheerleaders like to share pom poms, if someone forgets theirs, or water during breaks.  As a coaching staff, we will ensure that no sharing is allowed or occurring.

Parent Meeting - The parent meeting is planned for June 1, 2020 at 5:30 pm.  We are planning to offer this meeting as a virtual meeting.  If each candidate brings one parent plus coaches, we would be close to 50 and likely pushing the Governor's limits of 50 people. For this reason, we will hold this meeting completely online. We will send an email to all the parents whose student has filled out the application online.  If your child is planning on trying out and has not filled out the application, please have them fill it out as soon as possible.

Tryouts - Tryouts are planned for June 1-3.  The clinic days are June 1 and June 2 and tryouts are on June 3.

2020-2021 Tryout Update - April 28

General Update

After talking with the school administration, our goal for tryouts this year is to make them as "normal" as possible.  As a coaching staff, we find there to be great benefit in doing tryouts in person.   The plan for right now is tryouts will be set for the first week of June, depending on what the CDC guidelines are during this time.  If we are allowed to be in groups larger than 20, we will hold in person tryouts.  If we are still restricted to smaller groups, we will hold tryouts virtually.  More information to come on both potential formats as the time gets closer.  We have set this timeframe as a cutoff date because we have to order uniforms in the beginning of June in order for them to arrive by football season.

Once we have a firm method moving forward, we will give more specific details/dates.  We wanted to give an update so everyone has an idea of what the coaching staff is planning as of right now. Thank you everyone for your patience. We will keep you updated as we have more details.

Parent Meeting

The parent meeting will be held at the beginning of the first clinic day.  If we are in person, this will be an hour before the clinic starts in the Faculty Room above the library.  If we are virtual, a link will be provided to you to watch live and ask any questions you may have.  The parent meeting will be scheduled for Monday, June 1 at 5:30 pm, with either method of delivery.  We may also look at offering both methods to allow parents/students the option to watch live, if needed.

Tryout Packet

We have updated the tryout packet to include dates that we are anticipating for the year.  As always, dates are anticipated and may change as this situation evolves. We have also decided to have everyone submit their tryout packets via a google form rather than submitting the hard copy.  The only portion of the packet that will need to be signed via a hard copy is the signature sheet that requires both the candidate and parents signatures.  The signature sheet will either be brought to clinic day 1 (June 1) or a picture can be taken and sent to the coaching staff.

2020-2021 Tryout Update - March 30

Due to the evolving circumstances, tryout meetings and tryouts have been postponed.  We will keep you updated when we have new dates.  Thank you for your patience! 

I have attached the Tryout Packet in case anyone needs an electronic version of it.  Please disregard dates because, at this point, those are changing. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the coaches and we can help you.
