Alex and Coach Program Transcript COACH LESLIE: Hi, Alex. I'm glad you could join me for our cheerleading pre-tryout

orientation meeting. And thanks for joining on video conference. That allows us to meet

earlier in the summer while people are still on vacation or have challenging schedules.

Well, I'm Coach Leslie. Tell me a little about yourself.

ALEX WILLIAMS: Yeah, I'm a junior. I'm really excited about cheer. I've wanted to be on

the squad for a while, and I've been practicing at home.

COACH LESLIE: And where's home?

ALEX WILLIAMS: Oh, South City. I take the bus from here to St. Paul.

COACH LESLIE: Well, you seem very well-spoken.

ALEX WILLIAMS: Thanks.

COACH LESLIE: Listen. Are you sure you want to be a cheerleader? I mean, don't get

me wrong, it is athletic. But, look, don't rule out the basketball team.

ALEX WILLIAMS: Um, yes. Thank you for the suggestion.

COACH LESLIE: Sure.
