Trojan Youth Cheer

🖤💛 TROJAN YOUTH CHEER BOOSTER CLUB 💛🖤

It takes a village to build something great — and we’re looking for parents, grandparents, family members, and supporters who want to help make this season the best one yet for our athletes! 📣✨

We are officially organizing the Trojan Youth Cheer Booster Club to help support our cheerleaders throughout the upcoming competition season through fundraising, volunteering, event support, team activities, and more!

📅 May 24th
⏰ 5:30 PM
💻 Via Zoom

Whether you can volunteer a little or a lot, we would love to have your ideas, support, and involvement. This program continues to grow because of the people who believe in these athletes and this team. 🖤💛

Please see the flyer below for meeting information, Zoom ID, and passcode!

Each month, we’ll be celebrating the birthdays of our amazing cheerleaders and coaches! 🎉 We love recognizing the special day of everyone who brings so much energy, positivity, and dedication to our team. Happy birthday to all our May birthdays! 🎂 💛

Out of respect for our community, tonight’s evaluation practice has been canceled as we mourn the loss of a Millington Central High School student.

We ask everyone to keep the family, friends, and all those impacted in your thoughts.

We will hold a parent meeting on Tuesday, April 21st at 6:00 PM at Lions Park to go over the season schedule and important updates.

Due to unforeseen circumstances affecting our school community, we will be canceling tonight’s evaluations. Our hearts are with those impacted, and we appreciate your understanding and support.

Parents of athletes who have made the team, please join our Band group for future practice updates. Tomorrow we will have our scheduled parent meeting during evaluations to go over the season and finish paperwork.

THE MOMENT IS HERE 🔥Trojan Youth Cheer – Competition Team Selections

We saw something special this week. Every athlete who stepped onto that floor showed courage, effort, and heart—and we are incredibly proud of each and every one of you.

That said, this was not an easy decision. As our program continues to grow, we are limited in how many athletes we can take on. Because of that, selections were based on what truly matters in this sport:
💥 Attitude
💥 Coachability
💥 Effort
💥 Attendance
💥 Confidence under pressure

The fast-paced material taught during evaluations was intentional. We wanted to evaluate more than just ability—we wanted to see who would:
✔️Pick up choreography and formations quickly
✔️Use the videos provided to practice on their own
✔️Respond well to mistakes in the moment
✔️Take corrections from coaches and apply them
✔️Continue performing with confidence, no matter what

Because in competition cheer, mistakes will happen—what matters is how you handle them. Please understand that these decisions are not based on one moment alone. We considered the full picture—overall performance, consistency, commitment, growth, prior involvement, and readiness to be part of a team throughout the entire season.

To those selected—congratulations. This is just the beginning, and we are excited for what’s ahead. We will see you Monday.

To those who were not selected this time—keep going. This is not the end of your journey. Growth takes time, and the athletes who improve the most are the ones who stay committed to their own improvement and continue showing up for themselves.

We are proud of every athlete who stepped out there this week. ❤️

⚠️ Important: This is not the list for the middle school football cheer team. That team will be selected by the school cheer coaches, and their list will be posted on their page next week.

We are posting four videos for evaluations:
Link provided below.

• Dance (slow counts)
• Dance (full speed)
• Jumps sequence (slow counts)
• Jumps sequence (full speed)

Please make sure your athlete reviews all four videos so they are comfortable with both the counts and the timing.

Athletes should come tomorrow ready to perform these routines to the best of their ability. We know this was taught quickly, but that’s part of the tryout process—we’re looking at effort, learning ability, and how they apply corrections.

They should also be prepared to perform any tumbling skills they have. Each athlete will have the opportunity to show a running pass and a standing skill if they have one.

We can’t wait to see everyone tomorrow—evaluations begin at 6:00 PM. Let’s go!

🚨 TODAY IS THE DAY - IMPORTANT INFORMATION 🚨
You only have a few hours left to register for evaluations! Don’t miss your chance to be part of something special this season.

We can’t wait to see everyone at Day 1 of Evaluations TONIGHT! 💥
📍 Location: Millington Primary School Gym
⏰ Time: 6:00 PM SHARP
All evaluations are closed practices.
Parents may not stay inside during practices/evaluations.

A parent meeting will be held tonight at 6:15 pm, as well as the next two nights. Each athlete is required to have a parent attend ONE of these meetings.
**PARENTS MUST SIGN A WAIVER BEFORE DROPPING OFF THEIR ATHLETE.

All athletes must:
✔️ Come dressed in athletic clothing
✔️ Tennis shoes required
✔️ Hair pulled out of your face
✔️ Be ready to give full effort and stay focused

The Agenda:
Week 1 of evaluations will focus on each athlete’s individual skillset, including tumbling, effort, coachability, and attendance, along with their ability to work within a group through dance, formations, and overall performance. Consistent attendance is important, as it allows us to properly evaluate each athlete.

At the end of the week, we will post the names of those advancing to Week 2 on Friday.

Week 2 will focus on final team placements. During this time, athletes will be evaluated on how they fit within a team setting, and each athlete will receive their official team placement and be moved to their permanent team.
