Cheerleading
was officially recognized in the 1970's, but has been a part of the
Pop Warner program for several decades. The first ever National
Cheerleading competition was held in DeKalb County, GA. Today,
160,000 children are participating in cheerleading and dance around
the United States.
Participation
in the Pop Warner Spirit Program provides kids an opportunity to
perform in an organized, supervised, safety-oriented environment.
Pop Warner programs emphasize fun for all and encourage the
development of qualities important long after Pop Warner days are
gone.
The
Spirit Program is growing in numbers each year due to the popularity
of the sport. In an effort to keep pace with the many new changes in
the cheer & dance industry, there are a few basic rules that are
unique to Pop Warner Spirit Squads. For a complete list of Pop
Warner guidelines, please download the Official
Pop Warner Rulebook.
