KLMBGC Cheerleading Program

We have always been devoted to training the youth in our community in the sport of cheerleading, while at the same time, providing them with many life skills and tools needed to become future leaders. The sport of cheerleading involves a great deal of hard work, teamwork and commitment. This sport will teach them to do their individual best because each one is a member of a team and the team is only as good as each individual.

UPCOMING EVENTS:
The Cheerleading program will be holding its end of season banquet on December 4, 2011 from 12 noon – 4pm at Lafontaine Bleu.  Tickets are $30 and can be purchased from the team managers.  Please contact Marcella Daniels at (301) 792-8843 for more information.

For practice, cheerleaders must wear loose fitting clothes (no denim/jean material) & tennis shoes with socks. No jewelry or large hair accessories are to be worn for safety reasons. Hair must be secured off of the face & shoulders in a ponytail. No nail tips.

PARENTS – In order to ensure that all children have a rewarding experience, we need Parent Volunteers. Volunteers are needed for the following committees:

Team Managers are a necessity to helping to make our program run smoothly. Each squad must have 2 Team Managers. They play a vital role in our program. The Team Manager handles all administrative duties for his/her squad.
