About Ursuline Cheer

Ursuline Academy Cheerleading is a Varsity squad made up of 19 girls and one head coach. Our main goal as a team is support Ursuline's various fall and winter sports and making sure we keep the UA student body and faculty energized and spirited at sporting events. We provide sideline cheering for every home Varsity Volleyball (Fall) and home Varsity Basketball game (Winter). 

 

In addition to cheerlng for Ursuline's varsity sports, we are priviledged to get to participate in two parades in the St. Louis area every year, the Kirkwood Days Parade in September, and the St. Patrick's Day Parade that takes place in March on the weekend before the holiday every year. Make sure you look for the Ursuline RED the next time you are in attendence!

 

We also have the opportunity and priviledge to be what is considered to be a competitve cheerleading sqaud. This means that on top of supporting our school, we are able to compete in competitions that are solely focused on cheerleading. Our routines are packed with high-flying stunts, eye catching transitions, tumbling, and many more entertaining features. These competitions give us a chance to come off the sidelines and be the center of the crowd's attention a few times a year.
