Summer and New Information


I hope all of you are having a fantastic summer!  This is a lengthy post with a lot of information, so please be sure to read it all. I have made some changes to our summer practice schedule.  Starting NEXT week, we will now practice every Monday from 7:00-9:00am as well as Wednesday nights from 6:00-8:00pm.  The schedule for June and July as well as practice uniform scheduling is listed at the conclusion of this post.  Both practices will take place outside on the track.  If you cannot make it to practice, please let me know in advance.  Just a reminder, cheer camp will be on August 11 and 12 with a stunt clinic on August 13.  Remember these dates are mandatory!

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

You will find the summer conditioning sheet for the next week and half by clicking here.  Print it out and hang in a place you will see it daily.  Please be self-motivated in doing these on your own time at least once a day.  If you notice you are really struggling during our conditioning time at practice, you should try to fit conditioning in every morning and night.  These exercises should not take any longer than ten minutes. Totally doable.  

I would love for everyone to purchase a set of kinetic bands, which can be purchased here.  Two years ago, nearly everyone on my team purchased a set and our jumps improved SO much faster.  They cost $30, but they can really help your flexibility and jump skills get to where you want them to be.  If you don't want to purchase the bands and have ankle weights at home, please bring them to practice because we are going to start using them.

Many of the girls have expressed that they would like to take a summer tumbling class as a team.  I am looking into it and will get information out to all of you as soon as I have it.  Also, just a heads up... we will be kicking off our first fundraiser next week, which I'm hoping will give us enough to purchase two more stunt mats.  So, get excited and get ready!
