UPDATE: We are SO EXCITED to be starting our first Special Needs team! There will be a parent/athlete meeting Saturday October 17th at 11am. For more information please contact the gym at (801) 543-2287. All ages and abilities encouraged to join!

SPECIAL NEEDS* - This team is specifically for our "differently"-abled students who would love to cheer! Students will be taught basic cheer fundamentals, arm angles, jumps, kicks, tumbling fun and team work. They will work with CCA coaches as well as student coaches from our Senior All-Star teams. This is a wonderful way for special needs people to interact with other people their age and is a wonderful learning experience for EVERYONE involved! SPECIAL NEEDS team members will compete at several competitions throughout the 2009-2010 season.

They can do amazing things." -Parent of Special Needs Athlete
