The Jr. Raptors Cheerleading program builds athleticism, sharp leadership, and community pride in young athletes from Kindergarten through 8th Grade. We align our training directly with the varsity level standards of Rich Township High School. We don't just teach cheers we mentor young leaders and prepare our athletes to transition seamlessly to the high school level.
Program Highlights:
- Elite Training: High energy dance, precision motions, and safe foundational stunting.
- The Best of Both Worlds: Athletes bring elite energy to sideline game days and have the opportunity to showcase their discipline on the competitive mat.
- High School Ready: By training with varsity aligned terminology and conditioning, our cheerleaders step onto future mats already equipped to excel.
- Character First: We emphasize teamwork, accountability, and academic excellence to build confidence on and off the mat.
*Tumbling classes offered but not required for sideline cheer.
