Cheerleading Information

 

It is our intention for the 2011 season to set up our Cheer squads accordingly:

 

Kitty Kats-Bantam Kindergarten:  This is a Instructional Squad, and will practice two times a week until school starts then only once a week.  This squad will cheer on Saturday’s for our Bantam Football Team.  These squads will not participate in a competition but will be required to attend at least one competition to cheer on the older cheerleaders and see what they will be doing next year.

 

Junior (Purple, Silver and White) 1st, 2nd, 3rd &  4th  grade:  Our Junior Squads are our intermediate squads.  These squads will practice at least two times a week throughout the season. They will cheer on either Saturday or Sunday depending on the number of girls.  It is our intention to have a Cheer Squad for every Lightweight Football Team.  The Junior Squads will go to competition.

 

**Depending on the number of participants for the upcoming season there may be a Saturday Cheer Squad and a Sunday Cheer Squad for the same Football Level.  According to the IRCA rules, the cheer squads can only have 2 grade levels.  Squads will be determined by the Cheer director and head coaches of each cheer squad. **

 

Jr. Varsity 5th and 6th Grade.  Our Jr. Varsity Squad is our intermediate - advanced squad.  The Jr. Varsity Squad will be practicing at least two times a week throughout the season.  The Jr. Varsity Squad will cheer on Sunday’s for our Middleweight Football Team.  The Jr. Varsity Squad will go to competition.
