FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

FAQ: FAQ

WHAT SKILLS ARE REQUIRED TO TRYOUT?

We don't require any specific skills to tryout, but cheerleading or gymnastics experience is encouraged. In the past, we have taken both people who have cheered their whole lives and beginners!

WHAT SPORTS DO YOU CHEER FOR?

We cheer at home volleyball games and all home football games. We always travel to cheer for the Harvard-Yale game! In the spring semester, we cheer at all home basketball games, both men's and women's, and travel with both teams to the Ivy League Tournament and the NCAA tournament.

WHAT IS THE TIME COMMITMENT LIKE?

We generally practice 2 to 3 times a week for around 1.5-2 hours each time, and also ask our members to fit in conditioning on their own time. Football games in the fall last around 4 hours, and we cheer two basketball games a weekend in the spring, and each one lasts around 2 hours.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BE ON THE TEAM?

It does not cost to be on the team. Everything is funded by the Athletic Department.
