Open cheer practices are a great way for people who are interested in the cheer team to get a glimpse of what the seasonal practices will be like! Here are some common questions and answers:

  • What are the dates and times for the open cheer practices?
    • Open cheer practices are Mondays and Wednesdays throughout September. The first three dates:
      • 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 4
      • 6-8 p.m. Monday Sept. 9
      • 6-8 p.m. Wednesday Sept. 11
  • Where are the open cheer practices located?
    • Open cheer practices will be held at the Gymnasium (Building 13 on the campus map).
  • Who all can attend the open cheer practices?
    • Anyone who is enrolled as a Lee College student!
  • Do I need to have prior cheer experience to be able to attend?
    • NO! Having prior cheer/dance/gymnastics/etc. experience is always a plus, but it is not required. If you have no prior experience but still want to come out, please feel free to do so!
  • What is the clothing attire for the open cheer practices?
    • Athletic clothes that are appropriate. For females, sports bra and shirt covering sports bra along with shorts/leggings are acceptable. For males, no crop tops/excessive gym clothing. Tank tops and such are fine, but we ask that males and females alike keep your practice attire workout professional.
  • Do I need a physical to be able to attend the open cheer practices?
    • For the open cheer practices you will not need a physical. However, you will need to sign a waiver in order to participate. A physical must be turned in before the official tryouts, to ensure that everyone is healthy enough to be on the 2024-2025 cheer team.

Please contact Head Cheerleading Coach Drew Yoder if you have any questions. Hope to see you out there! GO, NAVS!
