I remember the rah-rah days! I watched my oldest at seven as she cheered alongside high school seniors, her tiny hands waving pom poms bigger than her head.
A decade later she was the one cheering next to young girls who looked up to her with the same adoration and intrinsic desire she’d once had. She led dozens of cheer clinics through her high school and college cheerleading days, including her years on ASH Trojan Cheer.
This year’s squad hosts their annual Little Trojans Cheer Clinic this Saturday from 9-12 in the ASH Gym. It’s a fun day filled with excitement for girls aged 4-9th grade. Snack, drink, and t-shirt are provided with registration.
The girls will have a showcase performance at 11:30 AM the day of clinic but will also get to perform with the “big girls” at the Oct. 25 game. This is one of the most exciting routines the entire season and you won’t want to miss it!
