Our Cheerleading
Angel
by Michele
Ridgway, Tatjana Trozjuk, Monigue Meyer
Our Cheerleading
Angel,
whose spirit lives on the sidelines,
holiest are your pom pons.
Your spirit comes,
your pride will be done,
on the sidelines, in competition, and at practice.
Lead us away from
laziness,
forgive us our mistakes,
and grant us the strength to make every motion count,
every stunt stick,
and every routine amaze.
Give us daily discipline
and self-confidence,
but deliver us from disrespecting those who compete against us.
May the spirit,
the pride and the glory of Cheerleading live in our hearts always and forever!
Amen

About Michele: "I am an American living in Germany because my husband
is stationed here with the Navy. I coach a squad of German girls in northern
Germany. It has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I had
to start from scratch with these girls. Most of the girls didn't even know what
cheerleading was when we started a year and a half ago. I had to start with
the most basic of cheers and motions. Now they sound and look just American
cheerleaders. They have worked so hard. If anyone ever asks you if they should
coach an overseas team. Tell them go for it."
