Speech Writing

[Redstiletto]

Is anyone good at this?

I need a good speech for a "Show Off" (It's a preview of a cheerleading routine), which is on April 4th. And I have to be the MC and do the speech because I am the current coach person.

Any help would be great!

This is the format I was thinking of using:

1. Welcome and Thanks
2. Thanking the other coach who did awesome with them this year.
3. Introducing the freshman on the squad
4. Introducing the sophmore and the juniors
5. Introducing the seniors and letting the juniors give the senior awards.
6. Tell everyone how awesome the girls have been and how hard they have worked.


Then the girls will perform.

7.Thank everyone for coming again and the night will be done.

So please!!! Anyone willing to help, i would greatly appreciate it!

All I really know about speech writing is the old axiom:

Tell 'em what you're gonna say, say it, then tell 'em what you just said.

Dunno how well that works, though.

If you're a little nervous about getting up in front of all those people, take some AV material--if they're all looking at your pretty pictures, they're not looking at you.

I'd move talking point six to right after three, but that's just my personal tastes.

Additionally, you may want to consider postponing the awards until after the performance.

They are not really awards, they are just gifts the younger girls want to give the seniors.

But that is a good idea to think about, giving them to them after.

And I would rather do point six after all the girls are out on the floor. I think. Now I am rethinking everything!
