Cheerleading Tryouts

Tryouts are to be set up by those interested in cheerleading.  Contact Head Coach Jamie Ourecky-Sand for more information.

The following are requirements that participants trying out for the Cheerleading Team will need to perform during their tryout.

  • Execute a toe touch and a right or left herkie.
  • Perform a dance routine that will be taught to you.
  • Perform a cheer that will be taught to you.
  • If you are able to do a cartwheel/round off or any higher level of tumbling, you will be asked to do so. However this is not mandatory.
The Cheerleading tryout will take place on Saturday, March 31st. Please arrive no later than 8:30 am at the Haddix Recreation & Athletic Center. You will have until 8:45 am to check in and fill out paper work. For your paperwork you will need to know your Varsity uniform shell, skirt and body suit size. If you are unsure of your size I will have some available uniforms to try on. You will then be able to stretch and warm up jumps until 9:00 am as you will be expected to perform a toe touch and herkie of your choice. From 9:00-10:30 am a dance and cheer will be taught to all participants and the actual tryout will therefore begin at 10:30 am. Extra points can be gained during the tryout by performing a hurdle round off rebound, standing back handspring or more difficult level of tumbling. All participants MUST be wearing plain black shorts and a plain white top (tank top or t-shirt).
