One of the hardest things for me every year is coming up with new material to use that will test the cheerleaders' (both returning and new) abilities.

This year I'm excited to say I've found cheers, chants, and dances within Championship Productions products and have then modified them to fit the specific requirements of my judging scoresheet (and of course I've changed the words of the cheers to relate them to my high school).

My favorite DVDs for tryout material are:

CHD-02634A Winning it All! Vol. 2 - Cheers & Sidelines
CHD-04282 Cheer to Pin: 25 Wrestling Cheers
CHD-03012A Cheers & Chants, Vol. 10
CHD-03329D Jomo's 15 Favorite Sideline Dances
CHD-03329E Jomo's Favorite Advanced Dances

When putting together tryouts for your squads, be sure to include everything in your tryout that you expect to see throughout your season. Don't forget about jumps, spiriting, voice/volume, and tumbling!

If you have any advice, stories you'd like to share, or questions on the tryout process, feel free to comment!]]> Dana Logan, Championship Productions Cheerleading & Dance Team Thu, 07 Mar 2013 10:23:06 -0600 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?5,2307,2307#msg-2307 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?5,2307,2307#msg-2307 Double Downs are no longer permitted at the high school cheerleading level.

The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) added this dismount rule to protect cheerleaders from the increasing number of injuries associated with this high-difficulty skill.

Has the elimination of double downs affected your squad(s)? What are your feelings about this rule amendment?]]> Dana Logan, Championship Productions Cheerleading & Dance Team Wed, 21 Nov 2012 13:34:27 -0600 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?5,2299,2299#msg-2299 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?5,2299,2299#msg-2299 Lonnie Kragel, Championship Productions Cheerleading & Dance Team Fri, 12 Oct 2012 10:47:06 -0500 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?5,2294,2294#msg-2294 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?5,2294,2294#msg-2294
Stan Tabor satisfies this growing need for cheer programs all over the country in his DVD: 65 Conditioning Exercises for Cheerleading. This is an amazingly helpful DVD, and can be used by new or experienced coaches.

I certainly cannot wait to start using Tabor's drill ideas with my own cheer squads this winter!

What exercises do you like to use with your squads that are made just for cheerleaders?]]> Dana Logan Cheerleading & Dance Team Thu, 29 Nov 2012 14:51:30 -0600 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?5,822,822#msg-822 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?5,822,822#msg-822 If so, become a [b:80f32bdce3][i:80f32bdce3]"Championship Affiliate"[/i:80f32bdce3][/b:80f32bdce3] today!
