Welcome to Sanford Pop Warner Cheerleading. If your home is zoned in our area, we invite you to join our award winning cheerleading squads! No prior experience is necessary. Our purpose is to provide our participants with a fun season filled with cheerleading instruction where, at the season end, the squad presents a 2 1/2 minute routine at our Mid Florida Cheer Championship.

    We have squads for children in first grade through 8th grade. Teams are divided based on age and grade. Below is an example of how we divide the teams, BUT each year is different based on enrollment and team sizes.

• Tiny Mites: 1st and 2nd graders

• Mitey Mites: 3rd and 4th graders

• Jr. Pee Wee: some 4th graders and all 5th graders

• Pee Wee: 6th graders

• Jr. Midget: 7th graders

• Midget: 8th graders

Coaches are volunteers that are carefully selected based on cheerleading knowledge, background and experience. We also use Jr. Coaches which consist of high school cheerleaders and alumni from our program.

Our focus is on fun and physical fitness as we develop skills that will allow many to continue cheering in high school. We begin our season with cheering for our respective football teams. Games are held on Saturday's and we do travel locally. As we move into September we begin to work on competition routines where the focus is on tumbling, stunting and dance. Our teams compete at the Mid Florida Cheer Championship held at the end of October. Teams placing in the top 2 advance to Regionals which is held over Thanksgiving weekend. This competition is held at various locations throughout Florida and may require travel. Those advancing to Nationals will compete the 2nd week in December at Disney's Wide World of Sports.
