Building School Spirit...
The Grove
City College Cheerleading Squad cheers for all home football and
basketball games and occasional away games. We do numerous things to
promote school spirit, such as selling personalized sports
paraphernalia, coordinating crowd cheers with the band, and attending
other sports events. We also encourage the players by making posters,
sending good luck notes, and of course cheering for them at games.
The cheerleading squad practices about two times per week, for an hour and a half at each practice. If there is a need for more practice time, extra time is scheduled. We also lift as a squad to gain strength and safety for stunting. Cheerleaders are required to attend every practice, lifting session, and game throughout the season. Making the Squad ... In order to become a member of the GCC Cheerleading Squad, you must try out. They are held in early spring for the next school year. The tryout consists of the following:
The squad ranges from 10-14 members, depending on interest and talent. Men and women are welcome to try out. Freshmen are unable to tryout before they are students at GCC, but if there is an open spot for the winter basketball season, freshman are invited to tryout. So if you have experience in cheerleading, keep your eyes open for announcements about tryouts! It is a wonderful opportunity and is tons of fun! If you have any further questions, please let us know.
