HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR TEAM PROGRAM (Ages 14-18 years old)
Note: Cheerleaders must be in high school to register for this program. If you are interested in the High School Senior Team Program, please send an email to the Cheer Commissioner at [email protected].

Our high school senior team program is our new program for high school students ages 14-18 years old. This program allows students to still participate in their high school sports, while still being able to actively participate in competitive cheerleading. The season runs from November through April/May with practices occurring between two to three times a week, and possible weekends. During practice they will focus on gaining several different skill sets, including tumbling, stunting, and dancing. They will learn a choreographed routine to be performed at competitions.

The High School Senior Team Program athletes will attend approximately 5 to 7 competitions and compete in the performance recreation division for the entire season. The team’s level will be based on upon the skills of all athletes.
