Mark your calendars for tryouts and UCA camp

.
It is time to start thinking about next season already. (In case you are thinking of staying with Monarch Cheerleading for another season.)
I suspect that everyone is planning their summer vacations and camps at this time. So, if you are thinking of doing cheerleading next year, I wanted to give you a heads up on our possible dates for our UCA cheer camp. The camp that works the best for me is at CSU (in Fort Collins) from June 28 to July 1.

Full UCA camp schedule:

I do not know whether or not varsity will be going, or if it will just be JV again. Cathy and I will sit down after nationals to plan for tryouts and the upcoming season. I believe that this camp is very beneficial for these girls, and it is great to have the entire team there if possible. I also think that it will be nice to go to a camp that is a little further away, so we feel like we have gone to a destination.

Also a heads up that tryouts for JV and varsity will probably be the week of April 12-15th. I will let you know as soon as that is decided. We would begin practicing as a team in mid May. If you are continuing with cheer next year, please keep up your tumbling in a class or privates, or at least open gyms. Tumbling skills are very good to have for both varsity and JV.

BVSD has cancelled school and all activities tomorrow, so I assume that means no basketball game Tuesday night. I will see everyone on Thursday for practice. If the game is rescheduled, I will let you know.

Wrestling match

.

Be at the main gym by 6:50pm. We may need to go in together so that we do not need to pay. We will sit together and cheer for the wrestlers. We will stay no later than 8:15pm. This was really fun last year, and they very much appreciated it.

I can give everyone a little information about wrestling as well. My son used to wrestle, so I am familiar with the sport.

Wear your black jerseys and jeans.

Varsity Basketball this Tuesday Jan 4th

We will be cheering for the Varsity girls basketball game this Tuesday.

We really could use some practice to warm up and refresh our memories, so please meet at the school at 5pm for the 6:30pm basketball game. We will also put together our timeout cheers during this practice. The game should end by 8pm. Wear your new game (diagonal MHS) uniforms with the "crisp" competition bow. BRING YOUR POMS!!! Wear your sweats.


For those girls that missed the mandatory basketball cheer practice before the break, you will need to sit out one game. (This means sitting with me in the stands for one game.) Everyone else will be cheering. Because it is a varsity game, we can do crowd leading cheers like "MHS" with elevators and signs, Marching, etc. We can definitely make a good showing.


Practice your basketball cheers. I emailed a file with the basketball cheers today. We practiced all of them before break, but try to refresh your memories.
