Thank you for your interest in Lebanon Youth Football and Cheer, Inc.  The following is intended to provide information only.  If you have specific questions for which you cannot find the answer here please feel free to email the LYFL Board at [email protected] or the Cheer Director at [email protected]

Registration & Uniform fees

TOTAL FEES: $200

Uniform requirements

Each cheerleader will be required to have a basic cheer uniform which consists of a shell, skirt, briefs, solid white shoes, solid white socks and poms.  The League will be responsible for placing the uniform orders.  Parents will be responsible for purchasing shoes that are solid white, solid white socks, and briefs.

 

Practices

Practice will begin on July 17, and be located at the Fairview Church on Leeville Pike.  Initially, everyone will practice as one group.  The group will be divided when the football teams have been split into their divisions.  At this time, coaches will be assigned to specific divisions, and cheerleaders will practice with their group for the rest of the season (exception: competition practice).  Practices will be held Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6:00pm until 7:00pm for the first two weeks. After that practices will be two days, which two days will be up to the head coach. Please remember that cheerleading is a team sport, and your squad and coaches depend on you.  There are routines which require specific planning and placement, and we have to be able to depend on everyone to be there, to be on time and to do their part.  Practices are MANDATORY.  If you don't practice, you don't cheer game day.  Allowances may be made on a case by case basis.  Please inform your coach ahead of time if you can't make practice.  Repeated absences and/or tardies could result in removal from the squad with no refund. Parents are required to be on location with your child for the duration of practice for emergency purposes. Please arrive on time and be there for dismissal.

Games

Game schedules are provided by TYSA, and will be posted on "Home" tab under Shcedules as soon as they become available to us.  Please keep in mind that schedules can and do change.  TYSA deadline for changes is Thursday prior to game day, and for that reason, some schedules may not be posted until Thursday evening.  There will be 8 regular season games.  Depending on win/loss, there could be 1 or 2 playoff games plus the championship game in November in addition to regular season.  Games (regular season & post season), like practices, are mandatory.  Click here for link to field locations for away games.  Everyone is expected to travel with their team.   If transportation to a game is a problem, please bring it up with your coach and/or the director.  We will work with you to find a solution.

Dress

During warmer months, cheerleaders will wear well-fitting shorts, shirts, socks and tennis shoes for practice.  No belly shirts, no short-shorts, no flip-flops or sandals.  As the temperature drops, appropriate practice attire will include sweat pants or yoga pants, and long sleeved t-shirts or sweatshirts. The child should be able to tuck in the shirt so it does not rise while doing stunts or tumbling.  The basic uniform must be worn for all games and TYSA events.  Proper footwear (tennis shoes - solid white for games & events) is required for safety.  No jewelry is allowed. No chewing gum is allowed during practices or games.

Conduct

Our cheerleaders are considered representatives of their team, our league and TNYSA as a whole.  For this reason, there will be no offensive language (coaches & directors determination) or fighting.  Good sportsmanship and teamwork is expected.  If there is a problem with another member of the squad, another parent or adult, please discreetly bring it to the attention of the coach(es) and director(s) in a timely manner.  We do not want to air dirty laundry in front of the girls.  Poor conduct, lack of respect toward coaches, other cheerleaders and other Lebanon Youth Football and Cheer members will not be tolerated and could result in removal from the squad.  Continual behavior problems will not be tolerated.  If parents must bring siblings to practice, please ensure they are not disruptive to practice.
