SCA Junior Cheer Choreography Clinic is Saturday, September 10th

In preparation for the Junior Cheerleaders pregame show, the coaches have scheduled a Professional Choreography Session Saturday, September 10th from 9:00 am - 3:00 pm in the gym. Students will be taught a routine, which includes stunts, cheer dance, jumps, and tumbling by a professional choreographer.

Lunch and snacks will be provided for the Junior Cheerleaders. They need to come in appropriate practice gear and shoes, hair pulled up out of their face, no jewelry, no earring studs, and bring a water bottle for the refill station. Pick up procedure will be the same as regular practice.
