📣📣 HELP COACH JONI! 📣📣

Joni needs help this season almost as much as her eyebrows needed help in her high school cheerleading days! 😆

(Thankfully, both the cheer program and the eyebrows have come a long way.)

With over 100 Jr. Maroons Cheerleaders expected this season, we’re looking for a few assistant coaches and volunteers to help Coach Joni provide a great experience for all of our young cheerleaders!

📣 What would you be helping with?
✅ Teaching cheers and routines
✅ Helping line up groups correctly
✅ Keeping practices organized
✅ Assisting during Saturday games
✅ Encouraging and supporting our athletes

⏰ The commitment is simple:
• One 1-hour practice each Monday
• Saturday game days

Coach Joni will handle the choreography, coordinate practices, and organize game days. We just need a few extra adults to help teach routines, keep things running smoothly, and make sure every cheerleader gets the attention they deserve.

No cheer coaching experience is required! If you enjoy working with kids, being part of a team, and helping build confidence and school spirit, we’d love to have you join us.

🏈📣 Help us make this the best Jr. Maroons Cheer season yet!
