This summer we will be hosting a MINI CHEER CAMP, August 16th-18th at Kinder Farm
This camp will be a fun way for athletes to bond with teammates and meet their coaches.
Sideline cheers and dance for the fall season will be highlighted.
This camp is included in your registration fees.
Athletes should arrive in workout gear and with full water bottles.
Important future dates:
Our Winter Select tryouts will be posted once scheduled.
We will wait to announce team selections until conclusion of fall cheer.
Winter Select is a very demanding season, lasting from November-April. All parents and athletes will be expected to sign a behavior and commitment contract in order to participate.
Athletes have a minimum of (2x) practices weekly, with upwards of (3x) during competition weeks. Tumbling classes will also be incorporated into the practice schedule.
Squads will travel to a minimum of four competitions, with at least one requiring an overnight stay.
Registration for this program will be made available soon.
Our cheer registration has more than doubled since last year, but we need your help to keep growing our wonderful program! And as we are always looking to add experienced cheer and tumble coaches, we are more than willing to train anyone over 18 who is passionate about the sport. If unable to coach, we would certainly welcome your participation as a "Cheer Parent," a role that is especially crucial on our younger squads. Cheer Parents assist coaches at practice, games and facilitate communication with parents. If you are willing to help, I would love to hear from you!
Our teams worked incredibly hard this past season and were rewarded as such, bringing home many first place titles along the way. This year, with continued hard work, we expect to move up a division! With that in mind, we will be posting strength and flexibility drills, as well as sideline cheers, on our private Facebook group, "SPGH Cheer."
It has been an amazing first year for me as the Commissioner. I am constantly blown away by the dedication our coaches show these young athletes. It is truly an honor to serve them and our community. As always, if you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out.
Cheers,
Brooke Glasgow
