Competition Cheer Preparing for State Championships
The 2018 JAMZ State Cheer Championships are here! The Carondelet Competition Cheer Team has been working hard with each practice to ensure their routine will hit cleanly during the competition. The 2018 JAMZ State Cheer Championships will be held on Saturday, February 3, in Bakersfield.
For the students on the team, the coaches are asking that they have a decent meal before practice and bring plenty of water to practices. A draft schedule should be released on Tuesday for the competition, and coaches will distribute the tentative competition schedule later this week.
Although the state championships are this week, Nationals are just three short weeks away. With so many important competitions on the horizon, every second counts, so coaches are asking all students to arrive on time and be ready to get going for every practice.
