Are you interested in being a member of the award winning UW-L Cheer Team?

We still have a few positions open for guys and girls. Please join us at our fall tryouts for the 2009-2010 season Saturday, September 5th! Tryouts will be held from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. in Wittich Hall, upstairs in the gymnastics gym.

You will learn the tryout cheer and dance, as well as work on stunting. Official tryout with the judges will be held the same day.

Please wear appropriate, well-fitting clothing. No midriff tops or baggy t-shirts. Make sure your cheerleading shoes are in good shape and clean.
