I regret telling you this but the pain is not going to go way before tomorrow. Your muscles need to rest. Here are my recommendations.
Take a hot bath with 2c. of dissolved Epsom salts. Soak for 30 minutes. The Epsom salts will help eliminate the lactic acid that forms on the muscles from over exertion.
Massage an analgesic cream into the sore muscles.
Dehydration can cause severe pain in the muscles. I recommend you drink purified water mixed with mineral water 50/50. This will replace the minerals that are exiting your body continuously.
I suggest that adults and children drink 40 ounces of water per 100 pounds of body weight every day. Realize that exercise, ambient temperature, and state of health affect the water needs of your body. One tip for athletes: it is healthier to drink a sports drink or water than fruit juice, soda, coffee, or milk during competition or active training periods.
500mg of calcium and magnesium, taken twice daily, can help with diminishing the pain.
Advil liqui capsules work very quickly on pain. Take them four times daily.

Do some very light cardio exercise such as walking, slow jogging, or the like- and do lots of stretching. This will increase blood flow to the area which will help remove this lactic acid buildup- the cause for the soreness.
Unfortunately, there is no miracle cure for this- it takes time and rest as well. However, the soreness will subside in practice after warming up.

Take a long hot bath and add a little bit of rubbing alcohol to the water. It helps to soothe your muscles releasing the pain. The how water will also soothe your muscles and you should feel a lot better tomorrow. Remember to get a lot of rest.

Dont get up. Stay sitting down and put a damp washclothe on them. You just need to stretch before cheering and its that you havent worked out that hard in a long time and then you did. It will be gone by a couple days

believe me as quickly as I say this. bypass to starbucks, and tell them you prefer a steamed lemonade with 2 honeys (grande sized) and tell them to steam it at one hundred fifty tiers so its no longer burning warm, yet an outstanding warm. it particularly is a superb medical look after a sore throat, I used to artwork at Starbucks and that i learn that from a supervisor, it works!

Put ice water in a tub and sit in it for a while.
The marathon runners do that after a competition.

You might want to try soaking in Epson Salt.
