Tryout results will be in the announcements tomorrow- (very hard decisions) Hold your heads high if you didn't make it, it took guts & you should be proud of just trying out.
FYI- be prepared, if you DID make it, we'll practice this Tuesday & Thursday 3:30-4:30.
Turns out, we won't have a game now on Wednesday- our football season is now over.

First Round of Football Playoffs will be Wednesday October 24 at 7:00pm
The game will be played in either Taybor or Sydney, so either way our Van Time will be 3:45 pm (so that we can stop somewhere to eat). Click here to see the IHSAA Post Season Schedule
If we lose, the season's over. If we win, there will be another game, time and location to be announced (TBA).
There is an outside chance that if we go far enough in playoffs, the date of our tryouts will be backed up- but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
Practice this week- I posted on facebook, but Kaitlyn and Jade don't have facebook, so here it is again. Since grades are due Wed at 4, I'm going to use today (Tues) & Wed to work on grading, planning and catching up on the school Website & yearbook. We'll practice on Thursday 10/18.
This week's game is against West Harrison in Mondamin, so Van Time will be 5:00pm (supper is on your own, there's not places to eat between here and there anyway).
Okay, so now it looks like the only day we'll be able to have practice is Tuesday, Oct 9
I couldn't be more proud of or more happy with this season's squad, but so many students are interested in coming out for cheer, that we will be having tryouts for basketball season. I've said before, the increased interest is evidence of the great job the current squad is doing. You're making people want to be a part of it too.
Don't be intimidated or worry too much about the competition, you've done the work, developed the skills and have the talent and experience to perform great in any tryout. And if somehow you don't make it back on, don't let it rock your world, choc it up to learning and growing and give it another try next Spring when we have tryouts for football season again.
Remember, there are three metrics I use to help me choose candidates; 1) the average of their three teacher-recommendations, 2) their GPA turned into a percentage, 3) and the average of judges scores at the actual tryout. This means that character is important, grades are important, and knowledge/skills/effort/talent are important. To be considered, candidates should have an aggregate score above 60%. Ultimately I reserve final determination and that's based on how well candidates will positively represent Boyer Valley, how well they can cooperate and collaborate with other cheerleaders, and how cooperative and coachable they'll be for me as the coach.
Candidates must have their physical & concussion paperwork current and submit their parental release form and teacher recommendation forms before they can tryout and be considered. Candidates should attend at least one, preferable two of the three tryout-practices.
2012-13 Basketball Cheerleading Tryouts
• Teacher Recommendation Forms, Parental Release Forms, Physicals, & Concussion forms due Fri. Nov. 2
• Tryout practices Nov. 5, 6, & 8
• Tryouts Friday, Nov. 9
THIS WEEK: We'll have practice Monday and Wednesday, but not Tues or Thurs. I'm covering detention for Mrs. Lee.
Heartland Christian are the Eagles. Anyone got any Run-Thru ideas?
NEXT WEEK, We'll practice Monday but NOT Tues, Wed, or Thurs- because I'll have my own detention duty and we have an early out that Wed. Charter Oak is pretty close, so we won't have to leave till after 5:30pm. Supper on your own.
