Attendance for Participation in Pep Rally and State Tournament
As discussed at the Christmas Party, attendance is going to be taken into account for participation in the pep rally performance and the state basketball tournament. As always, participation in other school events (student ambassadors, sports, student government, etc) are excused.
In order to participate in the pep rally performance, you must attend all practices and required games leading up to the pep rally, which is on January 24th. We have 3 practices to put together the pep rally performance and 3 halftimes. That is a lot to accomplish in a little amount of time so attendance is going to be critical.
The state tournament will be held at Weber State this year. We will stay in Ogden for the nights of Thursday, February 27th and Friday, February 28th. The state tournament has been highly enjoyed by cheerleaders in the past and something that is looked forward to every year. For the state basketball tournament games, we are only allowed to have a portion of our 33 cheerleaders on the court at a time, per UHSAA state tournament rules. The coaches would like everyone to be able to participate meaning we will divide games similar to how we are handling basketball season in general. Because there have been several attendance issues leading up to region basketball games, we need to set some requirements of how you will be able to participate in these games. Each team has approximately 2 requirements (one practice and one game) a week for the next 7 weeks leading up to the state tournament. We will discuss the requirements to be eligible to cheer at the state tournament at practice on Wednesday.
