Sideline season is quickly approaching.  Please make sure to pick up your packet in the main office, or click on the link on the sideline page.

This Saturday is Community Night for our soccer teams. JV starts at 5:30; Varsity starts at 7:00. All cheerleaders welcome. If you can attend, please arrive in uniform ready to cheer our boys to victory! RSVP to Coach Heather. She will meet you there.

The Sunday class from 7:00-8:00 is now full. There are still a few openings in the Sunday 8:00-9:00 class.  All other classes are still open.

Tumbling:

There is no tumbling over Labor Day weekend. As school starts, our classes are shifting as team gymnastics is starting again, as well as dance and twirling. So, listed below are our classes, or class options:

1. Varsity will tumble Tuesday from 4-5.
2. Anyone on the Freshman squad with a round-off back handspring is invited to attend Tuesday from 4-5 as well.
3. Any dancers, twirlers, or cheerleaders who have a conflict with weeknight tumbling, there are two class options on Sunday. 7-8 and 8-9.
4. Dustin prefers that a majority of Sunday night tumblers are beginners, or those with conflicts.
5. Anyone without a conflict, and JV cheerleaders have the ability to choose the class time that fits best in their schedule.
          Tuesday 8:15-9:15
          Wednesday 5:00-6:00, 7:00-8:00, 8:00-9:00
          Thursday 7:15-8:15

We ask that you contact Coach Heather as space on Sundays is limited to 12-16 cheerleaders per class. Once you have chosen a time, contact Coach Heather so she can verify with Dustin who is attending, and who is not attending tumbling. If you wish, you may choose a different place to tumble; however, you will need to let Coach Heather know where you are going, and receive a form that will need to be filled out and signed by the tumbling instructor.

Thanks!

August Updates:

Everyone should have their shoes, briefs, and crops by now. At your next practice, the payment for warm-ups and poms is due. The poms are $16.00 per set and the warm-up is $45.00. If you just need to replace one piece of your warm-up, you will pay only for that item. Please feel free to write only one check for the items you need. Checks should be made out to Bedford High School.

Keep in mind that tumbling is NOT included in the cost of cheerleading. Allpayments for tumbling go directly to Next Level Gymnastics at the first class of every month. You pay by month, not by class. This way, if you have to miss a class, you have the ability to make it up. It is expected that you make it up on your own time, not attempt to leave mandatory cheerleading practice early without prior authorization from a coach.

That leaves only two things definitively left to pay for during sideline season: the athletic fee (on September 1st) and the team sweatshirt. The team sweatshirt was originally scheduled to be paid for with the camp clothes; however, we postponed that to provide each squad or coach the ability to design their own sweatshirt for the season. Each team also has the ability to select their own bows. I know the freshman squad got theirs last night.

Tumbling update:

Junior high will tumble on Saturday during their regularly scheduled time, unless they attend the 11:00 class. The 11:00 junior high tumblers will go at 10:00.

High School cheerleaders cannot tumble this Saturday due to Media Day. We have a few options for make-up. Please be aware that you can go this week (9-11) or next week (16-18) to make it up. Whatever fits best in your schedule works. When you do go, sign-in and write Bedford cheer after your name so it is easier to check attendance.
