Cheerleading FAQ
2. How many age groups are there in the WYFA’s Cheerleading program?
Six and they are 5 & 6 yr olds; 7 yr olds; 8 yr olds; 9 yr olds; 10 yr olds; and 11 yr olds
3. Can my child cheer in a different age bracket?
Generally the girls will cheer on their age appropriate squad. However, there are instances where cheerleaders can cheer with the next squad up if their skill level and maturity warrants the move. These decisions are made by the head coach and cheerleading coordinator. If the move is approved, then the cheerleader will need to complete a SOYFAI “move up” consent form.
4. Can I help coach? Even if I’ve never cheered?
Yes, we’d love to have you join our coaching staff. Contact Rhonda Evans, WYFA Cheerleading Coordinator (513-473-3951), if you are interested. We also encourage our coaches to attend coach’s clinics and seek cheerleading information on your own. If you contact the coordinator, you’ll be notified of upcoming clinics.
