PSO Cheerleading is open to girls ages 5-12. This program will focus on
instructing girls in basic cheers in an uplifting and encouraging Christ
centered environment.
The squads are non-competitive and cheer for PSO football teams on a
weekly basis. Practices take place once or twice a week at locations
determined by the coach. Devotionals will be given weekly by each
coach. Games are played on Saturdays on PSO’s football fields located
on the south side of Plano Parkway between Midway and Marsh.
New squads will be formed based on age and the school you attend.
Please note that squad sizes will be limited and not each football team
will have a cheer squad.
League Fees:
$60 League Fee Includes: Registration fee, Saturday Clinic and award.
On-line registrations will be paid by credit card only. Registration
will be open until June 30, 2013. No late registrations will be
guaranteed, due to uniform ordering deadlines.
Uniform Information:
PSO will no longer be providing uniforms. All uniforms will be ordered
directly through the distributor your coach chooses, according to PSO
guidelines. Each squad is responsible for ordering and purchasing their
uniforms, after they have been approved by Julie Bishop, PSO
Cheerleading Director. Your child will be required to purchase a team
uniform. Each squad can vote to purchase a traditional cheer uniform
($150-$200) or just a basic shorts and t-shirt. Uniform companies
generally do not offer refunds, after you have purchased the uniform if
you decide not to participate. Also, you would be responsible for any
additional alterations.
Coaches:
PSO coaches are encouraged to motivate and build each child’s self
esteem as well as her athletic ability. All PSO coaches are required to
complete a background check. Click

for processing, be sure to sign PAGE TWO. If you are interested in
coaching a squad, please contact Julie Bishop. Additional coaches will
be needed for new squads. Coaches must

1.
I understand that as a participant of PSO Sports, my child is required
to attend the Skills Clinic (August 24th at 9:00am to noon)
in accordance with our mission statement, there will be a gospel
presentation at this event. There are rules in each sport that prevent a
team from advancing to the post-season tournament if players from that
team do not attend the entire event. Please check with your league
commissioner for the sport-specific rules on this. I understand that my
team does not have the right to play in the post-season tournament but
that it is a
bonus to
the season based on league rules.
