If your child is selected to be a cheerleader, there are specific responsibilities and obligations which your child must assume in order to qualify, and remain a part of the squad, including mandatory summer camp. After reading the attached tryout information and fully understanding the requirements and obligations, and after your child has a complete understanding of his/her responsibilities. Please have your child complete and return the tryout application form on or before the start of tryouts on 3/21/2019. There is a financial responsibility which includes uniforms, shoes, mandatory summer camp, camp wear, travel expenses and supplies.

Being a member of the Belleville West Cheerleading Program has many rewards and is a valuable experience that your child will remember for a lifetime. Additionally, your child will give pride and spirit to our school, students, and community through his/her participation.
