Middle School Cheer Team

Discover the excitement of cheerleading in a fun, team-oriented, and competitive setting. Coaches will focus on safety, teamwork, sportsmanship and making positive choices to help athletes improve their skills and prepare for advanced cheer teams in the future.

The Middle School Competitive Cheer team is designed for grades 5-8 and is focused on fostering development in the sport of cheerleading.

Previous cheer/gymnastics/dance experience is helpful for participating on this team, but not mandatory. The season runs June to January. June through August summer practices are from 5:00-7:00 pm on Wednesdays at Groveland Elementary. Practices will occur each Wednesday following the first practice on June 23rd. September-January practices are Tuesdays and Wednesday nights at Minnetonka Middle School East from 6:00 - 8:00 pm. This is a competitive team - all practices are mandatory and critical to team safety and success. Participants are expected to fully commit to the team and be present prior to signing up and becoming a member. The team will perform at middle school sporting events, community events, and local/state cheer competitions.

*Please Note The Universal Cheer Association (UCA) states that participants must attend a school within the Minnetonka district to be eligible for this Minnetonka program.
