Cheerleaders
We strongly advocate for organizations within TBYFL to introduce a cheer program in tandem with their football offerings for both the spring and fall seasons. The essence of our cheer program lies in empowering our dedicated volunteers to instill core values in our cheer athletes. These values encompass effective communication — both verbal and non-verbal — which is paramount not only in rallying support for the football team but also in ensuring the safety of the cheer squad. Teamwork stands at the heart of our program, emphasizing that success is a collective effort, not a solo endeavor. At TBYFL, we view cheerleading as a harmonious blend of artistry and athleticism. It's a discipline that fosters physical stamina, cultivates strength, and radiates passion and enthusiasm.
Cheer Coaches
Here at SA ToneBaby's, we prioritize excellence, safety, and continuous learning, especially when it comes to our cheer program. A cornerstone of this commitment is our mandate for all cheer coaches to undergo YCADA Training. YCADA — the gold standard in youth cheer and dance governance — equips our coaches with a comprehensive understanding of youth rules, nuanced rule interpretations, scoresheets, and detailed scoring guidelines. But it's more than just rules and scores; YCADA emphasizes safety awareness, providing our coaches with invaluable resources and training tailored to youth cheer, dance, and other spirit-related activities. By integrating YCADA's expertise into our program, we ensure that our cheer coaches are not only well-versed in the technicalities of the sport but are also champions of safety and best practices. This rigorous training ensures that every cheerleader under their guidance benefits from a holistic, safe, and enriching experience.
