A typical day for a varsity cheer coach is a mix of teaching, mentoring, and
preparation. The coach runs a structured practice, emphasizing fundamentals,
conditioning, and team strategy, while also teaching cheerleaders discipline and
teamwork. The coach manages communication with parents, coordinates with
other coaches on event plans, and monitors cheerleaders’ academic performance
and behavior. On game days, the coach prepares the team mentally and tactically,
ensuring every cheerleader understands their role. The day often ends late, with
post-game reflections, reviewing film, and planning for the next practice—all part of
building not just a team, but young men and women of character, in addition to
implementing the expectations of the overall athletic program of Pennfield Schools
and the varsity cheer program.
- Participate in all fall coaches meetings in preparation of the
