2023 NSYF CHEERLEADING

North Side Youth Football & Cheerleading offers cheerleading to both boys and girls from age 6 through the 8th grade. 

Participants will initially be split by the following ages

• We will initially split teams into three teams based by age.
• If numbers reach a certain level, then North Side will divide the age groups down even further to maximize the experience for everyone involved.  We expect this to happen this year. 

Fee:  $300; Scholarships and financial aid are available to all of our cheerleaders.  If you are in need of financial assistance, please contact Mark Ditsch at mark_ditsch@yahoo.com.
