About the Pom's

Our Jr Mavericks Pom Squad, although they also cheer at all the football games alongside the Peps,  compete in the State Cheerleading Competition

Not all of the Pom's  have cheerleading or dance experience....most of them learn it throughout the season. Pom's have a slightly more involved practice schedule and are held to higher expectations. ****

There are no tryouts to be part of the Pom's but cheerleaders skills are evaluated to determine which competing squad they will be placed on.

Being part of the Pom's requires more commitment on the part of the cheerleader as well as the parent!

Being part of our cheer squads is a fun experience and the girls have a great time! And YES...we have some of the sharpest looking cheerleaders around!

****Both squads will have regular practices together and will cheer at games together. Pom's will have some separate additional practices for competition preparation.

**Cheerleaders ages 8 and up must compete as part of the Pom's.

***Cheerleaders ages 5 thru 7 have the option to compete or not compete.

***All Pep's and Pom's are required to attend a 5 straight day week of mandatory conditioning. This will be the first week of practice and is required by the league. Conditioning will get their bodies prepared for the rigors of the sport, teach and increase flexibility, develop stamina, teach basic cheer motions and foster teamwork amongst the squads.

"but it's so expensive!!" .... don't worry!

Due to the fact that Pom's fees are higher, the Jr Mavs will work with you to help with pre-season payment arrangements so that it is easier for the parents and doesn't prevent a cheerleader from being able to participate.

We do not  charge extra "fees" for payment arrangements and  remember, unlike most cheer programs...there are NO MONTHLY TUITIONS ...period!

Payment arrangements are only available for Pom's fees.
