Bitty is an introduction to cheerleading for Kindergartners. During this 5-week clinic, they will learn basic arm movements used in cheers and chants. The athletes will then learn a series of simple chants that they will take with them through the youth cheer program. Team building skills are taught through simple games and then applied during a 30 second dance routine. The chants learned, along with the dance, will be showcased at a high school JV football or basketball game. Every athlete that participates will receive a t-shirt and bow that is worn at the showcase. Practice days and times for the clinics will be at the discretion of our volunteer coaches.
Program is for upcoming 2026-2027 Kindergarteners zoned in the Amherst Exempted Village School District.
