The Iowa All-State Cheerleading Squad is an
ICCA/IHSAA sponsored, select
team. Any varsity cheerleader of an ICCA member team can tryout for
the team. Tryouts are held in October every year. Candidates are
judged on their motions, jumps, dance ability, and gymnastics. A
team of 20-45 of Iowa’s best cheerleaders is chosen. A choreographer
is hired and the team practices on 6 different Sundays from December
to March. During the IHSAA Boys State Basketball Tournament, the
team comes together and performs during half time of three of the
Friday games. The last performance is during the 1A final. This half
time performance is televised and team members are presented with
medals.
The ICCA All-State Director is Melissa Hatfield (melissahatfield1980@hotmail.com) and the only choreographer the Iowa All-State squad
has ever had is Michelle Barlas.
Coaches should be receiving the
IHSAA mailing with the Fall Packet after August 7, 2011. ICCA is
providing the registration paperwork for All-State, State Competition, and
Honor Squad on the website now, as a courtesy.

All seniors on the All-State Squad are eligible to apply for a
$250 scholarship by submitting an application to the All-State
Director. A committee of ICCA board members chooses the
winner. The winner is recognized after the final performance
of the All State team at the Boy's State Basketball
Tournament.
