Making a commitment to cheerleading involves more than just the basketball season. Clinics are held in the fall; and atthe close ofthe clinics, the cheerleaders are chosen. Immediately, the work begins. The new cheerleaders practice for two hours every day to perfect their skills and develop unity among the squad. During the basketball season, they not only cheer at the home games but also travel with the team to the away games. Even when the season finally draws to a close, the cheerleaders continue to use their abilities by holding clinics for various local middle schools throughout spring quarter. One unique aspect of cheerleading is the ministry they have. During the home game halftimes, they have devotions with the visiting team's cheerleaders and are able to spend time ministering to them.
