Welcome back!
Welcome back to all the returning jumpers for the 2009-2010 season. We're going to have a fun and exciting year! For any new jumpers that would like to tryout for the team, tryout practices will be held at Glacier Valley Elementary School, on Sundays 9/20/09 and 9/27/09, from 3-5pm, with the actual tryouts on Sunday 10/4/09 at 3pm. The skills the coaches will be looking for are: - 90 speed steps in a minute - 60 consecutive double-unders - Ability to complete the introductory Compulsary routine Tryouts are fun and if you think you might have these skills, please come show us your stuff!
On behalf of the Juneau Jumpers, I want to publicly thank all the businesses and community members for their support of our team. We are very proud of our hard-working team and very grateful for the support this community has given them. And also, a huge thank you to our coaches for this year: Karen Ross and Dan Landen, and assistant coaches Jake and Tera Ross. Each has contributed countless hours over the last year, and we look forward to the success and achievement that this new season will bring!
