Welcome parents, grandparents, football players, cheerleaders and community members. We are excited for all of us to come together to complete this organization - The 2024 Cheatham County JR CUBS!

Have fun (smile & laugh). Always give 100%!

Objectives:
With this age group, we have 5 primary coaching objectives which are equally important.
1. Help them develop skills necessary to be successful and to prepare them for next season.
2. To have fun and have the kids develop a love for the game.
3. Learn about the importance of teamwork and sportsmanship.
4. Give positive reinforcement based on effort rather than results.
5. Provide a safe and healthy environment for all the kids on the team.

Player Expectations
1. Always convey positive attitude & willingness to learn. Giving your best effort is all that is needed.
2. Players ALWAYS show respect for the coaches, parents, and other players on the team.
3. Spend time outside of practice - performing what you have learned. Effort and drive are always appreciated.

Parent Expectations
1. Please try to get your child to practice and games on time. Understandably, this can be difficult at times and impossible at other times, but it's really hard to conduct practice or get ready for a game when players continually show up late or not at all. It is equally unfair to the rest of the team whom depend on a specific number of teammates needed to compete. If you know your child will be late or won't be able to make it to a practice or game, please let your coaching staff know in advance if possible.

2. Help out with team volunteer opportunities. We have a number of items that require parent help.

3. Kids love it when their parents get involved. Repetition is also crucial for skill improvement. There simply isn't enough organized practice time for the kids to become completely comfortable with everything that will be taught. Support the coaching effort by continuing to work at home on the skills and drills taught at practice. If you have questions on how to conduct a specific drill, please don’t hesitate to ask your coaching staff.

4. Please encourage good sportsmanship by demonstrating positive support for all players, coaches, and officials at every game and practice.

5. Please contact the commissioners and/or board directly if you have any issues or questions. Same holds true if your child isn't happy about something. We want to know if there is a problem right away. With this age group, very small things can cause a child to be upset. These problems can be fixed very easily if we know about them and can address them quickly.
