Cheer Commitments:

• CHEER CAMP: July 31st - August 4th from 2:45-4:15pm in aux gym.

• Our season runs from August through mid to late January (depending on when our last competition is)

• This year, we will only have ONE tryout. This means that those who make the team are committing to BOTH football and basketball/competition season. We will not have a second tryout. Only 20 athletes will be on the competition floor (per IESA/ICCA guidelines). Athletes not on the competition floor will still be expected to attend practices, learn the routine, give their best effort and cheer b-ball games.

• During basketball season, we do 2-3 competitions. Competitions are typically on Saturday or Sundays.

• Practices are Monday-Friday after school until 5:00pm

• Football/basketball games are 1-2 times a week until 6:00pm. 

• Consistent practice attendance is expected, as we cannot practice important skills with chronic absences.
