TG I'm just the assistant coach!


Wow. ummmmm really wow. I'm going to be so sore tomorrow!
 
Don't it stink when you relise you just can't do things like you used to? Have your dh give you a massage.
 

Congrats!!! And welcome to the wonderful world of :cheer2: :cheer2: !

Make sure to stretch. That includes arms, legs, upper and lower back, ankles, wrists...

Do the girls stunt? What age/grade? Do they make posters? I LOVE making posters!!

Wow..this is fun...maybe I should back away and let someone else talk...
 
LOL Tigercheer I love your enthusiasm :)


No they are just 6 and 7. This is through our church group. We have a league called "upwards"
( www.upward.org )

Anyway DS 10 will be playing Basketball for the same group but on a different level obviously.


This is just a for fun kind of thing at this point and something to help with Karissa's coordination. I think it will really help with her therapy. I couldn't believe how well she was keeping up with it!!

Kaylee is doing it as well and they are teammates so I think they will both really enjoy it :)


I'm glad you enjoy it too. Go cheer! :cheer2: :cheer2:

aint that the truth?

:)

LOL splendid idea though, I think I will do that ;)
 
Awesome!!!!!

Little cheerleaders rock. We're going to do a cheer clinic for a bunch of younger cheerleaders at my school. It should be a LOT of fun and I am looking forward to it.

If you have any questions or need help with anything (ie cheers, dances, music) please don't hesitate to ask! There's a whole squad plus myself that would be absolutely willing to help!

Go cheerleaders! You are an AWESOME mom for doing that!
 
:cheer2: Good luck!!! I was a cheerleader myself for half my life and coached for many many years. I had "retired" while I was in college though. A few years after the sweetpea was born a friend begged me to come coach for a squad in her league. I had a good coaching rep for taking my girls to 1st place at comps. And was also an invited judge at tryouts and comps in the area. So her asking me wasn't surprising. I did let her know that it had been some time since I had done anything. Well, just a year or two. But that was long enough for me to grow up from my cheer days and not be as "bendie" as I used to be. So let me just say, I was sooooo not in shape anymore. And my tollerance for squirllie little girls was long out the window. I have to give it to you though if you are willing to coach. Good luck and stock up on ben-gay. :cheer2:
 
The little ones are so cute. My dd6 was going to cheer for Upward but we went with the local dance studio instead because it is all year. Her first competion is at the end of the month. She could not be more excited especially since she is the captain and gets to start the routine. :cheer2:
