Thank you for your interest in McKendree Cheerleading
McKendree is a small, private liberal arts school with a growing cheerleading program. The squad is currently an 8-member squad. The Varsity Squad cheers at home games for varsity football, varsity men’s basketball and varsity women’s basketball. Occasionally, we will travel to important away games. The squad practices twice a week and has gymnastics class once a week. All members of the squad do receive a scholarship.
McKendree has competed at the NCA College Cheer & Dance Nationals held in Daytona Beach, Florida in past years. We have always been in the top 15 in the Small Co-ed Division with our highest placement being 4th. I am proud of the success this small squad has had on the national level. While we are participating in competitions this year, I cannot guarantee that the squad will do so every year because of the amount of funding and work needed to do so.
This year we will have on campus tryouts on April 26th, but also I will be offering an opportunity to come to a summer practice to tryout for the squad. The summer practices are on Saturdays, May 31st, June 21st, and August 9th. If you would like to tryout for the squad please contact me and we can set up a date and time.
If you have questions, please feel free to contact me at skkoerber@mckendree.
