WhAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR? |
We are looking for candidates who will represent East Coweta in a positive manner and who will work cooperatively as a team. Also understand that candidates chosen will be placed on teams based on their “overall score”. Tumbling is not required but is a skill that coaches will be looking for. Tumbling is on the GHSA scoresheet in order for a team to max out in a routine. We will have outside judges on Friday for both squads. Coaches will evaluate skills on Monday-Thursday and will evaluate tumbling and stunts on Thursday. Teachers will be asked about the candidate’s effort in class, attendance, attitude, and cooperativeness. Teacher evaluations are confidential and will not be discussed with a candidate or their parent/guardian. Cheerleading requires a tremendous commitment of time, effort, and financial responsibility. Fundraisers will be organized to try and offset costs. Schoolwork is top priority, and therefore candidates should consider whether or not they will be able to handle a rigorous schedule of cheerleading practice and events along with his/her schoolwork. All squads require a year round commitment. Please take this information into consideration before making the decision to commit to high school cheerleading.
