    We are trying to bring more school spirit to our school and to start, we are looking to give our fan section a fun name. At my old High school we were the wildcats so our section was called The Cat Pack For the high school I'm coaching at, I can't figure it out. Any ideas on names and how to...

    High School Proud To Be A Coach

    I know this isn't a post about a question or anything like that. But with the competitive season starting, I thought it would be nice for everyone to share feelings about their teams. I am sure I am not the only one that has had hard times on my team or rough patches with situations coming...

    Talking During Practice

    That is exactly what I do, I do not sound intimidating at all when I yell, so I simply step back sit down, and start going through my cheer stuff. Once one girls sees me do that, they quickly quiet each other down and they all get silent. I told them if they are going to waste my time during...

    My Team Won't Listen...

    The biggest thing is to stay respectful to everyone. The coach should be overseeing this more. But for you, stay respectful and encouraging. Think of the kind of leader you would listen to and respect, and do that. It's always hard to get the respect right away, but if you are respectful to...

    All-Star Broken Foot + Workout? Help.

    Oh goodness that stinks. I had the same thing happen to me and I was on crutches. I did a lot of shoulders with free weights, push ups on my knees, and abs. It will mostly be upper body, but it did help me because my legs were always my strongest. After that, kinda felt like a power house...

    This Team Mistreated My Daughter And Then Dismissed Her

    This is such a shame. I just can't stop thinking that your daughter had to go through an experience like this. All the teams I have ever been on (Allstar, college, and the team I coach) have been my family, I care for my athletes as if they were my little sisters, and to think someone could...

    T-jump

    We had that in our routine, and we received deductions from it because the judges said that the T jump could have been considered very bad pikes. So just make sure that the kids do not put their feet in front at all because even though, it was clearly (or at least I thought) not a pike, they...

    Help With Full Ups

    Just always remember that as soon as you see the ankle, you want to grab it as they are coming around to hit. The sooner you grab, the faster the flyer feels that stability and the faster you can help the bases. But make sure that when you are reaching, not to interfere with the twist.

    Upper Body Conditioning Help?

    Have them get up into a handstand and tap each shoulder with their opposite hand. It will teach them to balance along with giving them a great upperbody workout.

    High School Fundraising Ideas/help

    Definitely a kiddie camp. Its a great way to get younger kids excited for high school! We also did a fundraiser with chipotle which raised good money, along with selling cheer shirts for the school. We made it mandatory for each girl to sell 3. It includes hoodies, t-shirts and long sleeve.
