Cheerleading will be available again this year, on a limited basis, to 5-year-olds in kindergarten. They must be 5 by July 22, 2011. This program is an introductory program which allows the girls to get an overview of the sport.

It will begin in September (date TBA) and run for 6 to 8 weeks. Practices will consist of one day a week at Buck Creek Park. The season will include the girls cheering at 2 of the Thompson Youth Football games (date TBA).
