About KFL Cheer
Cheerleading is a huge part of sporting events at all levels of play. Cheerleaders provide athletes with encouragement and fans with entertainment; they take the sporting experience to another level!

KFL Cheer is a team-centered, self-esteem building program for children in kindergarten to 6th grade. In addition to learning the basics of cheerleading, KFL squads will practice creative cheers, chants and basic routines throughout the season, all while providing excitement and energy on the field during games!

KFL Cheer Basics

• Participation in KFL Cheerleading provides children with the opportunity to learn sportsmanship and perform in an organized, safety-oriented environment.
• All cheers learned will be used to encourage; no negative cheers are permitted.
• Each cheerleader will have the opportunity to lead their squad in chants/cheers.
• All cheerleading squads will wear identical uniforms. They will be issued at the beginning of the season and turned back in at the end of the season.
• Squads will be divided as equally as possible; sisters who have brothers playing tackle football will cheer for their brothers' team whenever possible.

Game Day

• Cheerleaders will cheer for tackle teams
• Cheerleaders should arrive at the field prior to game time to warm up and stretch before cheering.
• Cheerleaders will be introduced during halftime and will perform the KFL Cheer at center field.

Coaches

• Coaches are a critical part of the KFL Cheer experience.
• Coaches have the opportunity to mentor young children while teaching them the sport of cheerleading. KFL cheerleaders really look up to their coaches.
  
• At practice, coaches will lead the team in stretching/warm-ups, teach/review the fundamentals of cheer, and teach/review chants, cheers and stunts to be used on game day.
• At games, coaches are asked to prompt the girls to lead fans in chants and entertain them with their cheers.
• We prefer that coaches be high school age or older. Many of our KFL cheerleaders have big sisters who have cheer experience; they are welcome to help and/or coach their sister's squad. Co-coaches are also welcome, if two friends would like to coach a squad together.
• We are currently looking for quality cheer coaches for this season. If you are interested in being a coach, please contact us.
