How much does it cost?

Pop Warner Cheer is an exceptional value, especially when you consider the length of the season, and the number of hours our athletes and volunteer coaches commit to the program.

Our 2024 Spring season is $350 for all cheerleaders. This will include weekly tumbling classes at Double Down Athletics, a t-shirt, a hairbow, and the best memories EVER!

Cheerleaders are responsible for bringing a large thermos of water, hair up, NO jewelry.

If we are practicing outside, it is recommended to bring a towel to sit on during warm-up exercises, bug spray (to be applied prior to practice). Please note, WSPW does NOT provide water during practices.

SEASON:
Our focus for the upcoming season will be on fun and physical fitness while maintaining a strong emphasis on scholastics while developing excellent cheerleaders!

WSPW is a sideline cheerleading program as well as a competition program, and all cheerleading squads will cheer for their respective football team at regular and post-season games. The regular season runs from August 1 through late October, with games being held on Saturdays beginning at the end of August. The game schedule will be available in late July, prior to the start of the season. Additionally, cheer teams will cheer for their respective football teams at ALL postseason games.

As we move into September, we will begin to work on competition preparation where the focus is on tumbling, stunting and dance and all other elements for our competition routines. Our teams will compete in the Mid Florida Cheer Competition held at the end of October. Teams placing 1st and 2nd will advance to the Southeast Regional competition, which is held during Thanksgiving weekend. Any teams advancing past regionals (placing 1st or 2nd) will have the option of competing at the Pop Warner National Competition in December. Additionally, our cheer teams will perform at the Kaleigh Ottis Memorial Cheer Fest and the Husky Cheer Challenge.

We will also be offering Spring Cheer, which will grow our athletes. We will work on strengthening both tumbling and stunting skills. The spring season is January 16th through April 30th including a Spring banquet on May 1st!

Each Cheer Family will receive a Parent/Cheerleader packet at the first practice, which will contain more detailed information and expectations for the 2024 season. Please continue to check the website for more updates as well.
We look forward to welcoming returning and new members to the Winter Springs Bears Family. GO BEARS!
