Registration for Coupeville Junior Cheer, aimed at students in K-5, is open now.

And your window is a narrow one, closing at 11 PM on September 9, or earlier if the student count hits 100.

Cost is $70 per cheerleader, or $60 for yell leader positions for boys, with all money going to help fund scholarships awarded by the Spirit of Cheer Booster Club to graduating CHS seniors.

Each junior cheerleader will get a sweatshirt and a new set of pre-fluffed pink poms in honor of breast cancer awareness month, while the yell leaders snag a sweatshirt and megaphone.

Practices will be held on Thursdays beginning September 10, with a halftime performance during Coupeville’s home game against Friday Harbor October 2.

Get in on the ground floor.

Children ages 5-14 can take part in flag football and junior cheer programs being run at Camp Casey.

The season runs Mar. 5-May 9, with registration deadline set for Feb. 16. Cost is $100 per child.

The programs, run by YMCA of Snohomish County branches, focuses on “skill development, sportsmanship, and fun.”

Teams will practice once or twice a week, depending on the age group, with Saturday afternoon games kicking off Mar. 22.

All players receive a replica National Football league jersey and an NFL flag set, with each child guaranteed to play at least half of every game.

Coaches are also needed, and you can volunteer by contacting Laura Callahan at lcallahan@ymca-snoco.org.

“We are … BIG RED!!”

Following in the footsteps of their heroes, Coupeville’s Junior Cheer participants — all 100 or so of them — lit up Mickey Clark Field last Saturday.

If history plays out as before, many of these young athletes will stick with the sport and one day join the CHS spirit squad themselves, keeping the circle of cheer going on and on.

The rain didn’t dampen their spirit.

Well, guess you’re not mowing that lawn after all.

This Saturday’s Coupeville High School home football game against Adna, which will feature a Junior Cheer performance at halftime, has been bumped forward two hours.

Originally slated to kickoff at 5:00 PM, now things will get underway at 3:00.

The non-conference clash will pit a 1-5 Coupeville squad coming off a huge 35-6 win over next-door neighbor South Whidbey against an Adna team riding a three-game winning streak and sitting at 4-2.

It marks only the second time this season the Wolves have laced it up against a fellow 2B school, with CHS having played five of six against 1A rivals.
