Ymca Cheerleading

[lifelovecheer]

Hey y'all so I got a job as a cheerleading coach for my local Y! I am very excited but I am looking for tips on how to coach as I have never coached before. Anything would help, how practice should be run, tips and drills, chants and cheers, etc..

What age are the kids, how many and are you doing sidelines or competitions ?

Think back on your own experience as a cheerleader and how your practices went. You also need to establish realistic goals. For example, a goal might be full team cartwheels. An unrealistic goal might be full team BHS or BWO therefore, it's a waste of time to spend extensive time on that at practice. I could write you a book about coaching and my advice, but it would be rather lengthy so if you're interested, PM me.
