Instructors: DC High School Cheer Coaches Paech & Hanson and Cheerleaders Join the Dassel-Cokato Cheerleaders for an exciting introduction to cheerleading! Open to students in grades K–6, this program offers a fun, high-energy experience where participants will learn basic cheerleading skills and prepare a halftime performance for the Varsity Boys Basketball Game on January 23. Each session will include engaging games, cheers, jumps, stunts, and a dance routine. Registration includes a t-shirt, pom poms, and a bow—please indicate shirt size at registration. All youth cheer participants and their parents receive free admission to the game! For the performance, participants should wear tennis shoes, their program t-shirt, bow, and black or blue bottoms (black leggings preferred). Cheerleaders will meet in the cheer room prior to the game to rehearse and will be escorted to the gym for their performance. Afterward, parents should check out their child with a coach and pick them up from the south hallway near the band room. Note: Due to limited space in the cheer room, parents and guardians will not be able to stay during practices. Please drop participants off at the start of class and return for pick-up at the end. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
