We’ve Got Spirit!
Cheerleading at the Y teaches confidence, responsibility, teamwork and unity. When joining our program, your child will learn new cheerleading skills, create lifetime bonds and increase self awareness. YMCA cheerleading programs are designed to give a full work out while improving flexibility, coordination, balance and strength.
Cheerleading at the Y helps your child...
Build Self-confidence
When kids are active in sports their self-esteem grows as they learn how strong their bodies are and develop physical skills and self-reliance.
Practice Sportsmanship
Being a good sport shows respect for others and build team unity. Understanding sportsmanship fosters positive habits both on and off the field.
Gain New Skills
Kids learn proper techniques, gain skills and refine existing skills under the supervision of caring, skilled, and supportive coaches.
Learn Discipline
Practicing youth sports regularly helps kids learn the importance of discipline, organization, showing self-control, and staying focused.
Financial Assistance
At the Y, no one is ever turned away from programs or memberships due to an inability to pay. Community giving helps to support financial assistance to those in need.

I believe playing sports at the Y is a great opportunity for kids to go out and have fun. Learning how to be a valuable team member, and competition, sportsmanship is so important - and that's what kids get at the Y.
