Practices for all squads will be announced soon practice will start in July. The exact time of each squad's practice is up to our coaches and cheer director. Please contact our Cheer Director Coco, at [email protected] for details!
All fall football game schedules are determined by the Chesterfield Quarterback League, but typically games start the first week of the new school year and run through October or November
Besides cheering at the football games, are there other events the cheerleaders participate in?
Yes!!
All cheerleaders will attend a local one-day cheer camp in August! We've participated in this camp many times over the years, and it a super fun day for all the squads!
And all our squads will participate in the Chesterfield Cheerleader League cheer competition at the end of the season. We'll spend the summer learning choreography for the competition, then participate in the CCL competition sometime in October.
We'll also attend tumbling classes as well plans to go all out with a huge homecoming celebration, and end the season with a fantastic end of season banquet!
What are the plans for fundraising this season?
We have two fundraisers planned for fall cheer, with the proceeds to go towards paying for an away game uniform, tumbling classes, cheer camp and the end of season cheer competition
Here are details about our fundraiser campaigns:
Are you looking for cheer coaches and other volunteers this year?
Great question! And absolutely!
We are always in need of cheer coaches, team parents and other volunteers to help with the concession stand at games, fundraising and lots of other activities.
We're also looking for junior coaches! So if you know of a teenager who'd like to assist with coaching our cheer squads, we could definitely use their assistance! And it's a great way for them to earn volunteer hours!
So please let us know if you would like to help! PAA is a volunteer organization, and we definitely need all of our parents to participate and assist in order to be successful.
