Dear Rebecca Heller,

This writing addressed to you is about my interest in being the Assistant Coach position for Fierce All Star Cheerleading and Dance Gym. I saw thus position opportunity because I live in the area and saw a flyer looking for a opening on the position. I believe and know with the experience, skill level and a burning desire for this sport, I will bring a great coaching styles and help create a positive environment.

As a member of the University of Mount Olive Cheer team, and captain, and a associate of numerous cheer companies, I feel as thou that I can help coach at any level of cheering, from helping all star teams all over the eastern region of North Carolina, teams being Cheer Xtreme, Purnell Swett High School, and Townsend Middle School Gym. When it comes to what I want to help accomplish as an assistant coach, it would be boosting team confidence, team bonding benefiting team chemistry, and making sure techniue and the little things are taken seriously. By having strong aspects of leadership being in FFA throughout school, also having great communication, will help out the team and gym as a whole.

Thank you so much for your consideration ,

Letter of Recommendation

Dear Coach


It is my pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Silas Easter who is applying for team captain. I have had the pleasure of pastoring Silas for two years and have watched him grow into an outstanding athlete and leader.


Silas is an exceptional athlete who has demonstrated a strong commitment to their team and sport. They are a natural leader and have always shown a willingness to go above and beyond what is expected of them. Their work ethic is unparalleled, and they consistently push themselves to improve.


He possesses excellent technical skills and is able to make quick decisions to best help everyone. His athleticism and speed make him a formidable opponent.


In addition to their athletic abilities, Silas is a person of high character. He is a dedicated, respectful, and responsible individual who is always willing to help others. His positive attitude and team spirit make them a natural leader on and off the mat.


I have no doubt that Silas would be an asset to the team as a captain. He has the skills, work ethic, and attitude required to succeed at the next level. I highly recommend him without reservation and am confident he would be great for this.
