Yoda Says...

Good you were, yes
But better, you must become- mmm? Yes.
Loud you must be
and positive you must stay
If you are to lead.

First Away Game; ArWeVa Nov.27

Here's some pictures from last night's game.

 Its easy to crack Jade up.

Serious moment- what did I say about SMILING more?

Cheer this week

• MON 11/26- Practice
• TUE 11/27- Bus time 4:20pm Ar-We-Va @ Westside
• WED 11/28- Practice (OR Fitting appointment with Liz H from Varsity uniforms)
• THR 11/29- B JV/V BB vs. Missouri Valley @ Home
  Good Luck at State Drill Team members!

Can we get 2 volunteers to bring hospitality on Thursday & Friday nights?

Ask yourself...

T-E-A-M Teamwork! W-O-R-K Work- Teamwork!

One of the best ways to avoid drama- will be to constantly be asking yourself, "Am I trying to control the situation? Will other people feel like I'm trying to control them?" If the answer to either of those questions is yes, then you need to think of how you could patiently defer to, or creatively include others instead. THAT'S how you build teams, that's how you build relationships, loyalty, & community. 

That's how you lead- NOT by telling people what to do or how to do it.

No "I" in "TEAM"

Remember, you're all in this together, you're a team. Cheerleading is NOT about being on display, in the spotlight, showing off, or getting attention. It is, and has always been, about encouraging others. CheerLEADERSHIP is not bossy, critical, or controlling leadership- it is encouraging, positive, supportive, collaborative, and cooperative. Problems happen when we forget that and start thinking that we ought to be in charge just because we're so great.

Forward TOGETHER

BE+ WITH EACH-OTHER; Build each other up. Challenge each other, don't compete with each other.

BE+ WITH OUR OWN; No matter how any of our players, students, or faculty/staff behave or treat you, ALWAYS be positive in how you treat them, how you respond to them and what you say about them.

BE+ WITH OTHERS; ALWAYS treat fans, players, officials, coaches, students, cheerleaders, and adults from other schools with dignity, respect, and sportsmanship.

For Announcements

Congratulations 2012-13 Basketball Cheerleaders; Seniors Shannon Zehner & Quincy Baker, Sophomore Jennifer Zehner, Freshmen Madison Seuntjens, Kaitlyn Holben, Mali Bounsana, Jade Allard and Alternate Catherine Dublinski

See you all at practice this Tuesday & Thursday!

Basketball Season 2012

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.

Our first game the TUES the 27th, so we should probably also practice on Tues 11/20 and Mon 11/26 too.

Bad News

Turns out, we won't have a game now on Wednesday- our football season is now over.

I am REALLY proud of you all and can't tell you how much I appreciate how hard you've all worked and what a great job you've all done. I REALLY hope that you'll all come back and cheer for basketball season.

Reminder, that if there are more than just the 6 of you who want to cheer, tryouts will be Nov. 9. Paperwork will be available beginning tomorrow. WHo knows, maybe no one will want to tryout. Either way, we'll practice Nov. 5,  6, & 8. Until then, enjoy a break (or bone-up on your skills on your own so that you'll smoke any other candidates).

PLAYOFFS

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).

Cheer this week

Okay, so now it looks like the only day we'll be able to have practice is Tuesday, Oct 9

(Early out Wed, I'm gone Thurs to take my daughter to Dr. appt. in Iowa City)

Sorry, I got really sick this weekend so I'm taking Monday off to try to get in to see my doctor.

Hope you're all well- it was dang cold Friday, wasn't it?

See ya Tuesday
