Destini Copeland is a woman who contributes to the community of Tucker. She is a woman who gives back to the community that helped mold her. Growing up, Destini was part of the Tucker community participating in the Tucker Football League cheerleading youth program. Now this extraordinary woman is a great role model pouring her talent back into the Tucker Football League and knowledge of cheerleading in the cheerleading program. Destini has continued to build the program as a coach, molding young cheerleaders in their character, teaching them how to be better cheerleaders and helping them win championships along the way. These are some of the reasons Destini is a worthy candidate for Tucker’s citizen of the month.
Just recently she led the Tucker Lions Gems to two titles, winning the Red Fox Cheerleading championship and winning a Grand Champion title last March competing at the Gas South District in Duluth. In January her team claimed two first place titles in a different competition as well. Destini’s life experience helps bring home the wins, as she cheered both as a child and in high school. She has coached cheerleaders at the collegiate level and trained all-star cheerleaders. Destini’s passion for cheerleading is something that has benefited Tucker Football League cheerleading for 17 years. During the football season Destini oversees three cheerleading squads and is responsible for one competition team during the cheer season. Destini coaches cheerleaders from ages 4-11 for the Tucker Lions Gems and has done so much for the Tucker cheerleading program. She is still not done. She and her team are headed to Florida in May to compete for a National Championship representing Tucker.
Destini has been an integral part of TFL for many years. She has coached our cheer program with excellence as well as been a leading team mom for our football teams, as her son Alexander is on the 10-year-old team. She constantly shows her commitment to TFL and the community by being a shining example to all of our parents and children at Tucker Football League.
