A spiritline cheerleader looks on at a football game

Cheerleading

Spiritline is a year-round sport that consists of both Cheer and Pom teams. The Cheerleading team specializes in gymnastics-based acrobatic skills, like tumbling, stunting and pyramid building. The Pom team specializes in advanced dance skills like leaps, turns and kicks. Both Cheer and Pom teams' goal is to encourage school spirit at school-sponsored events. They participate on the sidelines and during halftime of football and basketball games, attend promotional events for the school, perform at school assemblies and do volunteer work. They also compete year-round in competitions that may include: USA Qualifiers, AIA Qualifiers, AIA State Championship, and USA Nationals.
