Cheerleading Fall 2025


Bantam Squad - Fall 2023

 PAL Cheerleading Fall 2025 | Open to Boys & Girls | Grades 2-8     
 

Our youth athletic programs are dedicated to enriching the lives of young people through sports.

The Fall Cheerleading program will emphasize teamwork and basic fitness training.   Our goal is to provide each athlete with an opportunity for personal achievement,

We will introduce a series of cheers and exercises in a relaxed, fun setting. Basic training, sportsmanship, cool stunts,
and maybe a dance routine.  
Our Program Director and Head Coach is Gia Romeo, Salve Regina University Cheer Captain Alumni, Coach at Gymnastics & Cheer Academy (GCA) and an Alumni of PAL Cheerleading. 


THE PROGRAM PLAN

We are hoping to develop two age-appropriate squads: 
Bantam-Grades 2-4  |  Junior-Grades 5-8

Our season will begin Monday, August 18, 2025, and run through the end of October.  If PAL football teams make it to the playoffs,
we may continue cheering until the first week in November.

We will cheer for one home football game a weekend.
Games are expected to be Saturday or Sunday, morning or afternoon.  Once the schedule is finalized, the games will be announced.

Registration is Open! - Secure Your Spot!

Looking for a rewarding way to make a difference this fall? 

Our program needs volunteers to help make this season a success!
Whether you can offer a few hours or more, your contribution would be incredibly valuable to our young PAL athletes.

Reach out to Coach Gia Romeo to learn about volunteer opportunities.
