All girls in grades K–8* are invited to join the Bulldogs cheerleading program for the 2024 fall season. Here's everything you need to know about the cheerleading program and how to register.
The Program*
The Bulldogs cheerleading program is composed of girls in grades K-8 who are active parishioners at St. Gertrude, St. Andrew, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, or St. Louis parishes (this includes homeschool students and students enrolled at one of the parish schools or faith formation classes).
Practices
Cheerleading camp will be over the summer, and official practices will start in July. Although there are adjustments in the pre-season, practices will be once a week once the school year begins. Practices and cheer camp may be held at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton or St. Andrew parishes.
Games
The regular game season runs from the first weekend after the start of school to approximately Halloween, with playoffs concluding in early November 2024. Games will be played on either Saturday or Sunday. Home games will be played at either the Seton home field or at Madeira High School Stadium. Away games will be played all over the city!
Registration
Registration is open until May 31, 2024!
Cost: $60 per participant
All St. Gertrude parishioners are required to pay a one-time $30 Boosters fee for the family's "first sport" of the 2024-2025 school year. If this is your family's "first sport of the year," you will need to pay the $30 fee.
