All-Star Cheerleading
Squad
~COACHES MUST BE
MEMBERS OF ICCA
TO HAVE CHEERLEADERS TRY OUT FOR THE ALL-STAR CHEERLEADING SQUAD~
The ICCA is excited to join together with the
Iowa Basketball Coaches Association
to put together a great weekend featuring senior basketball players
and talented cheerleaders. The cheer teams are chosen through a
tryout process by video. A panel of ICCA coaches choose cheerleaders
from each district in the state to be a member of the ICCA
All-Star Squad. The All-Stars are sent a video from which to learn a
choreographed routine which they will perform at Dallas Center
Grimes High School the end of march. Over the weekend the
cheerleaders cheer for both boys’ and girls’ teams from their
district and then perform their choreographed routines at the half
times.
Please contact ICCA All-Star Director Betty Lou Jones
jonesswea@iowatelecom.net with any questions.
