D1SA Cheer is a recreational program for children 5 - 14 years old. The program provides a rewarding and fun experience with an emphasis on both teamwork and individual accomplishment. Cheerleading requires stamina, focus and regular practice as a team. Throughout the season your child will learn sideline cheerleading fundamentals, sportsmanship, leadership and teamwork appropriate for each age level.
D1SA cheerleaders support the D1SA Football teams throughout the Fall season by cheering for them at games and may have opportunities to participate in additional community events.
Practice Schedule: Practices will begin in August. Practices are held two days a week at a field available to D1SA Football. Practice location will be provided before the season starts. Cheerleaders are encouraged to attend all practices, games and activities to ensure continuity of the team. Regular season games are held Friday through Sunday at fields throughout Fairfax County, parts of Loudoun, Prince William and Arlington counties.
