NATIONAL CHAMPIONS 2010

I am so proud to say that I had the amazing opportunity to coach the National Cheerleading Champions of 2010. All of the hard work these girls have put into the sport they loved paid off when they won the title of the National Cheerleading Champions of 2010 on Sunday, March 28th in Anaheim, California. This seasons competition team was made up of 12 girls that never gave up. These girls knew what they wanted and never once did they settle for anything less then their full potential. They put their full hearts into every practice, performance, and competition to become the best and they succeeded. I have gotten the amazing opportunity to get to know each and everyone of these amazing girls individually and they truly have made me a better person and coach. I want to congratulate my cheerleaders for their hard work, and success. I could not think of a better group of girls that deserve the title of National Cheerleading Champions. Congratulations ladies, I am so proud of you!!

JHS Cheerleading Program

The Jordan High cheerleaders take pride in supporting all the JHS sports and clubs through out the year. Cheerleading is a year round sport, wether it be football games in the Fall, basketball games in the Winter or supporting and cheering on the others through out the year. These girls put in so much hard work and dedication to their squads and commit lots of time to practicing and to their school.
