Trojan Pop Warner Cheer
Trojan Pop Warner Cheer is dedicated to the development of sideline cheerleading skills for girls grades K- 6th. We provide instruction in sideline cheerleading, dance routines, and tumbling in a FUN environment. We strive to prepare youth cheerleaders for Middle School and High School cheer squads.
Proof of satisfactory progress in school is required. 70% and/or 2.0 Grade Point Average (GPA) or the equivalent shall be the minimum grade point average acceptable to participate.
Fall Cheer Season
The season officially starts at the beginning of August with a cheer bootcamp and continues through Mid-November, depending on playoff advancement. All games are played in and around the Austin area with Anderson HS being our “home field”.
Cheer Squads (Age Groups)
Squads are formed based on skill level and Fall 2024 grade level in the following divisions:
Tiny-Mite: Kinder & 1st grade
Mitey-Mite: 2nd & 3rd grade
JPW (Juniors): 3rd & 4th grade
Pee Wee (Seniors): 5th & 6th grade
Practices
CCheering for Trojans Pop Warner is a commitment of at least 10 hours of pre-season conditioning (camp and practices), as well as continued weekly practices. Pre-season (Aug 21st – Aug 30th, 2024) will consist of 2 practices per week for ALL squads. Tiny-Mite and Mitey-Mite squads will transition to only one (1) practice per week once the season starts on August 31st, 2024. NOTE: This is Labor Day weekend. Juniors & Seniors will continue to practice 2x/week.
All practices will be at Murchison Middle School track. See below for days and times.

Game Days
All football games are played on Saturdays. Our teams may play at any of the Hill Country Pop Warner game locations. Parents are responsible for providing transportation to all games for their cheerleader. Coaches will set up a squad communication system to help with parent carpooling and last-minute game updates. Game day commitment is approximately 1 hour for Tiny Mites and up to 2.5 hours for all other squads.
**We ask that you commit to having your child at all games during the season (baring emergencies and sickness). Cheerleading is a team sport, and the girls work VERY hard on the dances and stunting patterns that rely on each squad member to play their part. Unlike other team sports, we don’t have “back up players” to fill-in if someone is missing. Thank you for your consideration.
