Purpose – The purpose of recreational level cheer program is to provide a wholesome recreational activity for girls between the ages of 4 – 12 that will help them to learn some very basic fundamentals of cheerleading. The goals of this program are: A.To aid participants in learning the elementary skills of cheerleading. B. To aid the participants in learning self-discipline and build positive intangibles such as teamwork, respect for authority and good sportsmanship. C. To teach the benefits of a positive attitude and building the spirits of others.  

Coaching Requirements – A cheer coach should be a person of high moral character and a respected member of the community. All potential cheer coaches must successfully complete a criminal background check. Cheer coaches should have a basic knowledge of the sport and should portray a positive personality. Cheer coaches should be available for practices and games on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday and available for games on Saturdays. A cheer coach should conduct themselves at all times in a manner that is exemplary and should never use profane or abusive language. A cheer coach should never incite participants or parents by criticizing game officials, the opposing team, department officials or judges. A cheer coach should attempt to keep all of the cheerleaders interested in the program by establishing fun, organized, informative practices. Any coach discovered to have a participant that is not officially registered will be suspended for the remainder of the season. Any coach whose behavior is deemed inappropriate and/or does not reflect good morals will be disciplined by the CPSA.
