Hi everyone,
I’m new here and this is my first thread so I’m really excited to get all of your feed back and help!
I was looking to get ideas on how to announce cheer captains. I coach a young team of 3rd-5th graders. I love announcing captains in a fun way. However this year I’m stuck. I can’t seem to think of a fun exciting way to announce captains.
Here are some of the ways I’ve announced in the past. I’ve given everyone a cupcake and the captains had a different colored cupcake. One year I bought wooden stars and painted them all for each girl. I had written their names on the Stars, but the captain and co-captain didnt have their names on it, it had their captain title. Another year I bought all the girls cheerleading themed notebooks and folders. In the folder I had typed a letter to the girls welcoming them to the team, etc etc. At the bottom of the captains paper, I had announced them captains. Last year, it was the first practice of the season, right after school ended. I did a summer theme practice where all the girls came in in bathing suits, summer shirts, sunglasses, beach towels, etc etc. At one point during the practice I had them get in a large circle and start playing catch with beach balls. After a few minutes I said “hey Madison catch this beach ball” and written on the beach ball was “captain Madison.” And she read it and the girls got all excited. I did the same thing for the other captains I announced last season. It was so cute and the girls were all so excited. It was my favorite way I announced captains, and the easiest haha
However this season I’m at a loss on how to announce. Does anyone have any fun creative ideas or thoughts on how to announce captains.
Thank you all in advance! I appreciate your feedback!
