Welcome to the Tallmadge Youth Football cheerleading program. I would like to thank each of you for your participation. I am looking forward to an exciting year with all of the kids within the organization. Please feel free to call any of the above numbers with any questions that you may have.
Financial Obligations
The cost to cheer for TYF is $125. TYF will hold your check until 8/1/2009 and give you 25 raffle tickets to sell at $5 each to offset this cost. The money collected for the tickets is yours to keep. Simply deposit the money into your own account to cover the check written.
As some of you returning are aware, last year we made the switch to the Buckeye Youth Football Conference. This paved the way for more to join and for our organization to grow. With that growth, we have made some changes and are in need of as many volunteers as possible. We will be collecting a $50 per family deposit. Please make your check payable to TYF and dated for October 15, 2009. This deposit will be returned to you at the end of the season provided that you have volunteered for at least 5 events within the organization and have returned the uniform.
Each cheerleader is required to purchase warm-ups for the season. This includes (warm-up jacket, warm-up pants, shoes, bodysuit, briefs and a hair bow) 2007 and 2008 warm-ups are acceptable. The dates to purchase will be relayed to you at a later date.
