Algonquin Argonauts Youth Cheerleading
2010 Algonquin Argonauts Cheer & Dance Program
Welcome to the 2010 Algonquin Argonauts Cheer Season! |
The goal of the Algonquin Argonauts Youth Cheerleading program is to provide kids with an opportunity to participate in an organized, supervised and educational spirit program geared at teaching the sport of cheerleading, while emphasizing the values of teamwork, sportsmanship and fitness within a safe and fun environment. No tryouts are ever required and anyone who meets the age and academic guidelines may sign up.
The cheer season officially runs from August 1st through December 31st. Cheer practices will be held 2-4 times per week during weekdays only until school begins and will be held 2-3 times per week once school is in session. Cheerleaders will be cheering at both home and away games on either Saturday or Sunday for an Argonaut football team in the same corresponding division/level. Practices will begin in the first week of August and will be held at Westfield Community School.

Competition & Exhibitions |
The Argos Cheer squads will participate in 1-2 exhibitions/competitions depending on the division/squad. We typically participate in the Pop Warner Mid-America Regional Tiny/Mite Mite Exhibition in early November and also in the Chicagoland Conference Competition in late November. Squads who qualify at the Conference competition may then advance to regional competition and beyond. Those advancing past the conference level will be responsible for funding any associated competition, travel and accessory costs.
