THANKS TO ALL OF YOU THAT HAVE HELPED WITH EACH SQUADS GETTING TO KNOW YOU PARTIES! THIS PROGRAM CANNOT RUN WITHOUT OUR WONDERFUL COACHES ,VOLUNTEER CHEER MOMS, AND ALL OF THE PARENTS THAT DONATE THERE TIME!!!!!



Just a little note: With summer approaching, we are all going to be busy with camps and family vacations. Please review your Participation Agreement. Persistent attendance problems will result in suspension or termination. We have tried to be flexible with girls camp and a family vacation, but we have been getting feedback from the coaches that some girls are going to be missing up to five weeks this summer. This is not fair to the families that have planned their summer in consideration of their girl's commitment to the squad. If you are not committed and are not willing to work out a schedule to include cheerleading, please reconsider participating. Cheerleading takes the whole squad (TEAM), it is not like any other team sport, there is noone on the bench to take your place.

TEAM

Together

Everyone

Achieves

More
It's the glimmer of hope when times are tough;

It's a bit more patience when we've had enough.

It's that thoughtful smile when one's desperately needed,

It's that extra push, a reason why we've succeeded.

This part of our personality which never fails to strive,

Is the creator of our goals and the source of our drive.

We are enthused about life, optimistic about what's to come,

Because the cheerleader inside looks for to life's fun.

It emerges as a friend to lend you a hand.

Where does this light come from, where does the ray start?

It shines in your mind, but ignites in your heart.

The confidence to try, the will to believe,

The acceptance of failure and the way to achieve.

It's very close by, its something we trust.

It's the fighter inside, it's the cheerleader within us.
The time has come once againto show what we can do,

to work together as a team, not just as one or two.

Together we can do anything that our hearts desire.

You know we have done it even though we are tired.

So let's look to one another for comfort and cheer.

Let's lean on one another as we cry our tears.

Because together we have a goal that we all have set.

And that's to be the best team the crowd has seen yet

So let's go out on that floor as a winning team.

Let's do what we do best and make that crowd scream.

Because together we can do it.

Together we can.

Together we can be the best team in the land.

GO CAVEMEN!!!!!

5th to 9th Grade Tryouts in March

Whether you are new to cheer or have cheered before, our program has expanded for all. We have added a new squad for each grade to better support the football program and give more girls the opportunity to have a great cheerleading experience!


You will be able to choose to be on a competitive squad or a non- competitive squad, which is explained in the Agreement and Expectations Form.

The clinics and tryouts will be held at the American Fork High School.
The cost will be $20

Clinic Dates: (THIS IS A SCHOOL HOLIDAY) Monday March 9th 10:00 am-12:00 pm (learning cheers and dance)
Tuesday March 10th 4:00 pm-5:00 pm (review and mock tryouts)

On the first day of Clinics (March 9th) you need to come with signed Release Form, Agreement and Expectation Form, and AFHS Wavier. These three papers can be found here and by clicking on Tryout Forms. Please read the Agreement and Expectation Form carefully, this should answer any questions you might have. The girls, parents or guardians, and the association will follow these rules with no exceptions. Tryout fee and a wallet size picture will also be due at this time in order for the girls to continue on with the tryout process.

9th grade prospective cheerleaders MUST have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 to be eligible to tryout for Competitive squad.

Each girl should come stretched and ready to learn the routine. Please wear workout clothes and gym shoes. We will do light warm-ups and spend most of the time teaching the routine. The high school cheerleaders will only be teaching the routine and not tumbling or spotting. Video taping the routine will be allowed on March 10th for the last 30 minutes of the review day. This is a great way for the girls to practice at home for tryouts.
