Prepare for Competition

Thursday, December 27

Today, girls who can make it (it wasn't made mandatory) are gathering to put together the competition piece. Once we return to school, there are only three weeks left to prepare by learning the piece and mastering it!

This information was posted on the third paragraph of the "Dances" post... Please remember at practice the last week that I had asked girls if they needed a lot of notice or if 24 hours would be ok. The only people who said it mattered were already going to be gone over break. Communication is key. If in doubt, text or call your coaches.

Next practice during break will be NEXT Thursday, January 3 from 2-5. We will decide at that time whether to also have a practice on Friday, January 4th.

If you are unable to make it, that is ok, we will put it all together with placements, on our first practice day back at school, Monday, January 7 at 2:30 PM

WE WILL BE having practice on game days, although they may be shorter (TBD). See the post for game days to see which days those are.

Dance & Half-times

The first music we are learning a dance to is Train's "50 Ways to Say Goodbye". If you bring a jump drive/thumb drive, you can get the music.

We are going to be collaboratively creating this first dance. There will be elements where the coaches will have the team try things and they may work or may not work. There will be opportunities for girls to come up with an 8-16 count that may be used for the dance.

We will meeting one of the days after Christmas and before New Years Eve to begin creating our dance for competition in February. We will contact you as soon as we know for sure.
