Additional Items Required for Purchase
- All grades: A white mock turtleneck (bodysuit or not), and navy blue bloomers can be purchased at the time of registration.
- All grades need a pair of plain white shoes. Please try to avoid hard ridge on bottom if your daughter will be flying (up in mount) as it is uncomfortable for the bases. Supportive/ athletic shoes are suggested due to conditioning (running, etc)
Volunteers & Coaching
Each cheer squad will need a coach and team parent! This is a great opportunity to help and get to know the other parents and girls.
If you have specific team or coach requests (such as a specific person she would like to be paired with for transportation issues or a football team to follow for family reasons) we will do our best to honor one request per child.
- Coaching Applications are due by Sunday, July 25, 2022 before 11:00 P.M.
- Please see Coaches page to register for a head-coaching position
