This highly competitive league develops cheerleading skills including stunting, tumbling, jumps, dance, and performance. Cheerleaders are expected to attend at least two practices per week and cheer at Rams Football home games on weekends at Graf Park. Each grade will compete in at least three ICA competitions each season. All athletes must follow the program attendance policy. Registration includes competition fees, practice space fees, sideline uniform, competition uniform (top and bottom), bow, shoes, poms, and mandatory skills clinic fees. Additional expenses may include fundraising, squad fund fees, and state competition fees. Each grade level has a set maximum number of participants. Once full, registration for that grade level will be waitlisted. If numbers exceed the maximum, tryouts may be held, with participants selected based on evaluations. Coaches may adjust roster sizes after tryouts to include additional athletes.

Early Bird Payment Plan (in person only): Place a $50 deposit per participant, with the balance due by March 1. Participants who do not pay the balance will not be rostered.
