icon07/20/2010 - How to Avoid Injuries

Warm up the right way.

How many times a day do you hear your coach or parent say, did you warm up?  Warm up is  vital prior to performing, whether in practice or at the competition / game.
A proper warm up increases your heart rate and over all body temperature to ensure muscle flexibility when you stretch.  Flexibility in cheerleading is essential.  If you stretch your muscles properly, your body will be able to do more on the mats or sidelines during your routine.  The human body is made up of 650 skeletal muscles which make approximately 40% of your body weight.  Stretching is something that takes time, so dont rush it. You'll end up pulling a muscle, and then instead of perfecting your routine, you will be on the sidelines rehabilitating your body.

Pre-Season Conditioning

Pre-season training is important in that you can train at a level that is below your normal performanace level when at a competition or on a game day.  This type of training will allow you to maintain and enjoy your fitness program since it is set at a comfortable pace.  However, once you get closer to the start of your season, your workouts should increase in intensity, frequency and duration.  This will enable you to get into competition condition.

Mental Preparedness

Preparing yourself mentally in pre-season, then continuing throughout the year is extremely important.  Being mentally tough will enable you to focus on your skills during your off season, then as the season gets into full swing, your preparation will carry you through and limit your injuries.  This mental toughness will help you before your performances so you dont freak out and lose your focus.  Try to visualize yourself performing your routine before you go out on preparation will help you pull through with flying colors.

icon12/07/2009 - Did you know?

For all parents, grandparents and care providers. This is from a teacher with the Red Oak School district
This was sent to us from a nurse in our district..... thought I'd pass along just as an FYI.
"Motrin and Robitussin don't mix"!!!!!
Madison, age 8, passed away just a few days ago. We've been asked to pass this on.  Doctors told her family that there have been quite a few children Madison's age that have died recently the same way that she did.  The only common link between them was that they were given Motrin (ibuprofen) and Robitussin together, this caused a heart attack.
They believe this is what happened to them. They told her to alert everyone to this. "Do not give children both of these medicines together."  You can give them one or the other but not both.
When Madison collapsed she suffered a heart attack and they were able to revive her, but the loss of oxygen damaged her brain and she was put on the respirator.  After this she had four strokes before she died after being taken off the respirator.

 

 
 
     

 

 

 
 
     

 

 

 


 

 

 

icon09/16/2009 - New Laws passed.

New Laws Passed Regarding Teen Drivers and Child Booster Seat Usage
 
Parents need to be aware of recent new laws that go into effect September 1 regarding driving and child passenger safety!
  • HB 339 prohibits teens under 18 from texting or talking on a cell phone while driving.
  • HB 537 requires that everyone in the car, regardless of age and regardless of where they are sitting, needs to wear a seatbelt.
  • HB 61 requires that all children younger than 8 years and less than four feet nine inches tall be in a child safety seat system.
 
 
 
Teen Drivers
Traffic accidents are the leading cause of death for teenagers in America. Inexperience, driving while distracted by cell phone use and other teen passengers, and failure to wear seatbelts are all contributing factors.

Parents can help their teens become safer drivers by taking an active role. Supervise practice driving and be a good role model by practicing safe driving yourself. Remind teens of the new laws regarding cell phone use and texting while driving. Remind them that they and all passengers are required to wear seatbelts.
 
Booster Seats
Car crashes remain the number one killer of children ages 2-14 in the United States. The Safekids Buckle Up Campaign recommends the following safety tips:  
  • Use a booster seat correctly in a back seat every time your child rides in a car. 
  • Use a booster seat until your child weighs between 80 and 100 pounds, and is about 4 feet, 9 inches tall. For most children, that will be between ages 8 and 12. 
  • Tell all drivers who transport your child that booster seat use is a must when your child is in their vehicle.
  • Booster seats are not installed the same way car seats are. They sit on the vehicle  seat and are used to properly position the adult safety belt for an older child. Always  use a lap and shoulder belt with a booster seat.
  • Never place the shoulder belt under the child's arm or behind the child's back.
  • Be sure all occupants wear safety belts correctly every time. Children learn from adult role models.
