The witch hunter's playbook: Vin Diesel's techniques and tactics

By admin

Vin Diesel is well known for his roles in action films, but he took on a different character in the movie "The Last Witch Hunter." In this film, Diesel portrays the titular witch hunter, Kaulder, who is immortal and has spent centuries fighting against witches. The main idea of the movie revolves around Kaulder's mission to prevent witches from wreaking havoc on the world. He is the last of his kind, tasked with maintaining the fragile balance between humans and witches. The story takes place in a modern world where witches exist but are hidden from everyday society. Diesel's portrayal of Kaulder is intense and brooding, as he brings his signature tough-guy persona to the role.

If she had chosen a cheerleader that had higher scores then she would have never known that a mistake was made because the school doesn t provide the natural break score. If you want to really learn what it takes to be an NFL pro cheerleader, we suggest that you join clinics of other NFL pro cheer quads or buy the book at the bottom of this announcement.

i bring in outside judges, but ultimately, i pick my team. i have the outside judges there more to cover my butt in case a parent comes to me asking why their suzy isnt on varsity, or didnt make a team. i have had parents in the past accuse me of not liking their cp, thus not putting them on the better team. this way, i can show score sheets, and that they were judged by a completely unbiased person. at the old school i was at, cheer was not that big of a sport, and i always judged my own try outs.

The way my coach did it, which I really liked, was you were judged on two parts:
1. Clinic (coaches observe work ethic, attitude, ability to learn quickly, etc.)
2. Tryouts (outside judges come in and judge typically)

Our judges were usually UCA Staff or college cheerleaders. I think the clinic part counted like 60% and the actual tryouts 40%. I thought it was a good balance, so the coaches could also get an outside opinion.

That's what our school does! The first three days are a clinic where the coaches judge us on how well we work with others, our stunting, how well we pick up the material, and how much we're dedicated to this. The tryouts for this past year all incoming Juniors had to sign a sheet saying whether or not they would quit if they made the JV squad. The last day the judges see your tumbling, jumps, the dance, a cheer we make up, and how well we execute them and of course, our spirit!

My daughter's school cheer squad has a fantastic reputation. They have brought in outside judges the last 5 years. There are 3 judges on the panel (selected from NCA, UCA, ACA, etc) and they judge 6 categories with the point scale being 1-5 (except for tumbing which can be a zero if they don't tumble). At the clinics the girls learn 5 chants, one dance, and one cheer.
They are randomly divided into groups of 3 by grade and the tryout procedures are as follows:
1. Group Dance
2. Group Chant (they learned 5 chants during clinics and the varsity coach will randomly call out one of those chants)
3. The group exits the gym and then they individually spirit onto the mat (no other cheerleader is in the gym from this point forward).
4. They have to perform a toe touch (mandatory) and 2 other jumps of their choice.
5. Individual Cheer that they learned at the clinics
6. Tumbling (both standing and running) and then they exit the gym.

The judges score sheet categories are:
1. Memory and Ability to Perform with a Group
2. Dance
3. Voice and Enthusiasm
4. Jumps
5. Tumbling
6. Motion Technique
The judges scores are worth 80% and the remaining 20% is the Assistant Principals recommendation (there is a maximum score of 20 points. For each tardy, grades less than 75, unverified absence, suspension, etc there is one point taken away).
The top scores are used to determine squad selection using the natural break. The coaches do not see the scores until they are posted by one of the school administrators that is present at the tryouts. Freshman can only be on the freshman squad, sophomores can only be on JV, juniors can be on JV or Varsity (depending on their scores) and seniors can only be on Varsity. This year there were 17 freshman, 13 JV and 20 Varsity. It's the largest squad they've ever had.

I think that hiring outside judges eliminates the "political" complaints to the coaches, principal and school board. We all know how passionate cheerleaders and their parents can be.


Addendum:
I just found out that one of the girls that tried out for JV that didn't make it compared her scores with a girl that did make it and her score was actually higher!! It just so happens that she compared her scores with a girl that had lower scores. If she had chosen a cheerleader that had higher scores then she would have never known that a mistake was made because the school doesn't provide the natural break score. The school is putting new verification steps in place for next year so that this mistake doesn't happen again.
