Niagara Pythons All-Star Cheerleading Team Placements
All-Star Cheerleading - What is it?
All-Star cheerleaders do not cheer for a specific school or team. We cheer for ourselves and because we love the sport. Athletes work
towards learning a two and a half minute routine that consists of Jumps, Tumbling, Motions, Dance and Stunting. Competitive cheer is
a tough but rewarding sport. Athletes build Strength and are able to improve on their Flexibility and Endurance. Competitive cheer is
also a great way to meet friends and build self confidence in children. Competitive cheerleading uses every athlete in a routine so it is
the true ‘team sport.’ When an athlete is absent, it not only hampers their stunt group but the team as a whole. Try it out and see how
much fun you can have as part of the Niagara Pythons!
Team placements are run just like a regular practice. Athletes will be asked to jump, tumble, stunt and learn a dance or motion
sequence.
We will be looking for athletes who have a positive attitude and demonstrate a willingness to learn.
Team placements are run in a fun and stress free way. There is no need to feel stress over anything. You will be taught all that you need
to know and no experience is required. Gymnastics or dance background makes an easy transition.
A little about us…
First and foremost, thank you for considering the Niagara Pythons. After such a great 9 years which included our 1st Grand Champion,
2nd National Champion & Best Choreography, we are extremely excited to start the 10th season! To see growth in all our teams, and to
see the possibilities of this up coming season is so exciting.
All of the coaches are certified in Risk Management and in Skill Progression which helps to keep your athlete safe! All coaches are also
certified by USASF and have CPR and First Aid.
The Niagara Pythons staff have a combined 25+ years of coaching experience and a combined 40+ years of cheerleading experience. It
is this reason, along with our facility that leads us to believe we are the best affordable program around!
