Hello Rookie Green parents,
I am our head cheerleader and wanted to get everyone up to speed on what type of team spirit we will be showing during the games.
Every Saturday, I will bring a spirit can to the game. This can (decorated specifically for the rookie green team), will be shaken during the game to cheer our boys on...now what makes it loud, is the coins and dollar bills we parents drop into it based on the team completing a great play (think touchdowns, defensive stops, first downs at clinch time etc). All the money collected will go towards our end of season party....based on what I've seen from our boys, I am guessing the jar will be full by season's end, and we will have one incredible party.
So save your change and small bills from the week, and bring them to show your spirit and support!
Thanks to Elizabeth Byrne, we now have a cow bell that we can bang and use to cheer on the boys. If we have any parents with rhythm, let us know if you can put together a "rookie green" chant :)
Lastly, I received confirmation that we can have signs at the game to show our spirit, but we cannot have them on the field (last year at half time the boys ran thru the sign), so, we will make a sign to hold in our seating area each week that says something like "crush 'em rookie green", "Spartan Power", or "Go Spartans", etc...you get the drift. We will usually host the sign making event on Thursday's during practice. More details to come. Since we have the pizza party tonight, I will surprise everyone Saturday with our first team sign.
See everyone tonight! Goooo Rookie Green!!!
