Patriot Cheer is a non-profit organization. All fees are used to cover expenses incurred to run the program. Board members are not compensated in any way for their participation. Coaches are professionals who are able to ensure the squad is not only learning cheers, stunting, and tumbling, but also have the utmost concern for the safety of the squad. They are paid for their expertise. 

​

Tryout Fee: $50

This fee is required of all participants. If the student attended either cheer clinic, this fee is waived. 

​

Yearly Fee: 2024 Estimation: $600

This fee covers the cost of professional coaches (who attend all practices, camps, games, and extracurricular activities), camp attire, insurance, UCA Camp, and facility fees. In the past, this fee was broken into individual parts and exceeded the cap of 600 we have set. The remaining costs are subsidized by monies made from Fall Ball.

​

Uniform Fee: Varies 

For their first season, all cheerleaders will be required to purchase a uniform and the required gear including shoes, bag, poms, etc. This gear is purchased in total the first year and owned by the individual family. In subsequent years, gear or new uniform pieces may be purchased as they are outgrown or worn out. 

​

Incidental Fees: Vary

Game attendance is $5 per person with a $20 family maximum. Cheerleaders and volunteers are not required to pay entry into the games.

 

The cost of cheer pictures is NOT included in the yearly fee. 

​

Payment:

A uniform deposit is due at the  uniform fitting DATE TBD. The remaining fees are divided up over May, June, and July for your convenience. We accept cash, check, cash app, and credit card. Several fundraisers are held (one in the spring and one in the fall) to offset the cost of cheer. We highly encourage your family to take advantage of the fundraiser!
