Cheerleading
Register Cheerleaders in the same manner you register football players. Cheer practice will begin the first full week of August. All participants will be contacted by email with specific date, time and location information. Practice schedules will be determined by each coach however practices will typically take place twice a week in the evenings until games begin and then move to once a week based on team readiness. We will be cheering for our Arlington Youth Football Club teams. Games will begin in September and most games are on Saturdays with an occasional exception. Arlington Youth Football Club is part of the Fairfax County Youth Football League and games will be in held in the Northern Virginia area. Please note that at this time this is a recreational cheer program geared towards instruction and mastery of cheerleading skills to include motions, jumps, basic stunting as well as the overall health and fitness goals associated with any other sports programs.
