Grace & Grit

This cheer program is proudly community-based, which means all major expenses uniforms, competitions, team jacket/hoodie, and training are fully covered. Parents will be responsible for registration, cheer shoes, and tumbling. Because of this unique setup, we are only able to accept a limited number of athletes per team, and spots will be filled on a first come, first serve basis. Practices will take place in the evenings on Monday and Wednesday. Friday is a tumbling day; this is a cost parents will pay. While tumbling is heavily suggested it is not MANDATORY. 

No prior cheer experience or skill is required every athlete is welcome!

This program is broken into sessions for families flexibility. This program is about athletes having a safe, secure place to develop as individuals, learn the mechanics of being on a team, and build cheerleading skills. For parents this program is also training ground. We will host Cheer 101 for parents each Friday during tumbling. These classes are FREE and will offer parents insight about Chicagoland cheerleading teams, how to navigate the cheer world with awareness, preventing and managing injuries, and so much more. 

This program is to prepare some for the cheer world before diving in, it's for families that can't afford or are simply not ready to pay hundreds of dollars a month for cheer, and for athletes who are beginners looking for a strong foundation.

At the beginning and the end of any day this sport is expensive. As a parent of a college cheerleader, I've learned some tough lessons and had some major blessings. I just want to share what I know so parents can be knowledgeable, save and spend money wisely, and have time to develop some goals for what cheer will be for their athlete and family.

We have the links below if you have any immediate questions. If you have more questions you can email, call, or text. We look forward to welcoming new athletes and a great year of cheerleading ahead!
