Parents must check their cheerleader in behind the activity center building.
No drop-offs allowed.
Cheerleaders must be between the ages of 5โ12 years old as of July 31, 2026 to participate.
Tryouts are not required. However, placement and participation are based on each childโs readiness, ability to follow instruction, overall comfort within a team setting, and ability to safely participate in a team environment.
Spring practices focus on conditioning, cheer fundamentals, team bonding, and building confidence.
We welcome cheerleaders of all experience levels.
Come out, meet the coaches, watch a practice, and make sure weโre the right fit for your athlete!
Registration fee includes:
Cheer uniform, 2 cheer bows, poms, cheer backpack, socks, and administrative/league fees.
All items are new each season. No items from previous years may be reused.
At the end of the season, your cheerleader keeps everything.
Our regular season runs from August-December (depends on play-off/championships).
Our first three months are a critical learning period.
State IDs are not required for cheer.
A yearly physical is required and must be submitted by July 31, 2026.
The physical must be current and cannot expire before November 1, 2026 (must be within one year of that date).
Once cheer equipment and uniforms have been ordered, no fees will be refunded.
If a cheerleader does not participate after items have been ordered, they will still receive all items included with registration.
No. Spartanburg Gators offers a sideline cheer program, and tryouts are not required.
Sideline cheerleaders support our football teams on game day by leading cheers and helping build team spirit.
Our program focuses on learning cheers, teamwork, confidence, and creating a fun and encouraging environment for all cheerleaders.
Spartanburg Gators has been part of the local community for 29 years, providing young athletes with opportunities to grow, learn, and build confidence through youth sports.
Our sideline cheer program continues that tradition by creating a positive and supportive environment where cheerleaders develop teamwork, leadership, and school spirit.
One of the most special parts of our program is seeing former Gator cheerleaders return years later with their own children โ and even come back to help coach the next generation of Gators.
That is the Gator Legacy.

We are looking for fun, energetic, and passionate individuals to join our sideline cheer family this season!
No experience required โ training provided!
If you love working with youth and being part of an amazing program, weโd love to hear from you!

We welcome both beginners and experienced cheerleaders.
Spartanburg Gators Cheer is about more than cheers โ it's about community and team spirit.
Cheerleaders support the Gators on game day while building friendships through team activities, celebrations, and an end-of-season banquet.
What an AWESOME HONOR to be featured on Fox Carolina News tonight! Yes, we want our girls to have fun and be competitive...but in the end...it is our goal to mitigate as many risk factors as possible! Thank you, Michaela Leggett, for this opportunity!!

My name is Coach Angie, and I serve as the Cheer Administrator for the Spartanburg Gators Cheer Program. While my primary role is administrative, I will also be actively involved in coaching throughout the summer and remain available to support during the season.
My goal is to manage the administrative and logistical needs behind the scenes so our coaches can focus on creating a positive and rewarding experience for every cheerleader.
I recently retired from the Army in 2026 after 24 years of service and am proud to bring that same dedication and leadership to this program. Iโm married and a proud mom of two.
