GAMES:
The girls will be cheering for the football players in their own grades (for example, 7th and 8th grade cheer squad cheering for 7th and 8th grade football team).
Games will generally be on Friday evenings as triple headers starting at 6:00pm and some Sunday games. Cheerleaders should arrive about 15 minutes before each game. E-mails will go out weekly from team parents to announce arrival times and game wear.
Cheerleaders will be expected to attend all games. The half-time routine will require that all girls be in attendance. Please respect the hard work of all teammates and do your part to be present. Having to rearrange the routine and stunts due to an absence takes up a lot

COMMUNICATION: All scheduled camps, practices, games and events are mandatory. Team parents must be notified ahead of time if your child will not be attending. Unexcused absences may directly result in a cheerleader being removed from portions of our program. The safety of our cheerleaders is our absolute first concern and priority.
FUNDRAISING AND PARENT PARTICIPATION: GRJFA relies heavily on fundraising and parent volunteerism for the success of the program. Each parent is asked to donate at least 2 hours to the program over the course of the season. There are many ways to help out, from snack stand to baking goods, to helping with coordinating and running events.

WE Will NEED VOLUNTEERS
We will be having a Bake/ Merchandise at most Home Games.
For those games I need volunteers to help bake/ bring in dessert items.
I know its a lot to ask with the next few games being very busy but if everyone can chip in with bringing or even buying something it makes it so much easier and more money to raise for
Breast Cancer Research
if you have any questions please email me at
with PINK OUT in the subject field
