Grayslake North Jr Knights

We are so excited to offer a Sideline Cheer program for Fall'24 K-8th grades! NO PRIOR CHEER EXPERIENCE NECESSARY and all athletes welcome.  Athletes will learn Grayslake North HS Cheers and perform a mini halftime routine. Participants will also have an opportunity to cheer at a total of 8 games, 2-3 will be at home (dependent on scheduling) and the remainder away. Participants are required to be at home games, and are optional for away games dependent on if enough athletes participate.  Lastly, they will get to join us in any parades we participate in and perform their cheers at the end of the season awards ceremony.

 All our participants will be provided a cheer uniform  that will need to be returned at the end of the season, a post dated check for $100 will need to be provided at uniform pick up and will be given back when items are returned. Poms will be provided to athletes by coaches during practices and games.  All participants will also receive a drawstring backpack,  warmup jacket, t-shirt, pink socks and a bow that they will get to keep.
