Face Masks
Face masks will be required for all participants while in common areas of the competition event venue. However, IRCA is not requiring face masks to be worn while on the performance mat.
Stunting/Pyramids/Basket Tosses
Direct personal contact is prohibited, therefore the IRCA will not allow any stunting, basket tosses or pyramids or any connected types of skills for the 2020 season. The routines will be based off of cheer elements such as jumps, motions, dance and tumbling. The focus will be on the fundamentals of the sport.
PROGRAMS
Our Cheerleading program is broken down by age and grade, Kindergarten thru 8th grade. The team composition changes from year to year, depending on enrollment figures. Teams for 2020 will depend on enrollment numbers at each grade.
ELIGIBILITY
All girls, ages 5 through 14 (grades KG thru 8th), are eligible to participate in the Cheer program with the exception of those who have graduated from eighth grade or turn age 15 prior to September 1 of the current year.
