The Green Hornets has an award winning cheer program. Our program includes kids from ages 5-13 and no experience is needed to join our team. Our coaches will train your cheerleader the fundamentals of motions, stunting and tumbling. On top of the fundamentals we also do many team bonding activities. In the past these have included poster making nights, pool parties, zombie paintball, urban air, bonfires, sleepovers and cedar point.  We love to see our teams forming life long friendships not just learning the sport. We welcome all levels from beginners to more experienced girls. 

Our levels for cheer are as follows:

Flag 5 years old to 7 years old. This age group is probably the most fun to watch. These girls will show the most improvement as the season moves on. We do limit the number of 5 year olds on this team and will require approval of the cheer coordinator. At this age group we need the girls to be able to separate from mom and dad and able to actively listen. This group will learn basic tumbling for forward rolls and cartwheels and if needed we will work on back-walk overs for those ready! Their stunting will be limited to go no higher than the waistline. All stunting performed will be based on the team’s ability which varies from year to year.  

Freshman is our next level and can have ages 8 and 9 years of age. This group with being slightly older than flag will start to introduce motion tightness, flexibility and working on core strength. For tumbling this group will focus on cartwheels with cheer form, handstands, and the beginning of back walk overs. These girls can stunt to waist level and we try to start to introduce one legged stunts and transitions, all is limited to the teams abilities. 

Junior Varsity is our next level and can go from ages 10 to 11 years of age. This team starts to focus skills needed to move on to middle school and high school competitive skills. This team is the next group to show huge improvements through a season. This group begins to demonstrate motion tightness, and tumbling skills and more advanced stunting. Based on the teams ability this group is able to stunt at prep or elevator levels. 

Varsity is our oldest and last division. This group is for ages 12 and 13 years of age. This group is expected to demonstrate leadership on and off the field, they help to teach the younger girls, demonstrate motion tightness and are expected to lead by example. This group works on full extensions for stunting and attempt at more advanced tumbling. 

All of our teams start every practice together and break off into groups after stretching is finished. Our teams follow the football schedule and practice Monday through Friday until the first game. After competition material is learned coaches are allowed to adjust the schedule to what fits the team best. At maximum after games begin the girls will practice for four days a week with one game on the weekend. In mid October we do have one competition the girls attend. 

We look forward to having your son or daughter be apart of our award winning cheer program!
