This season, the IYAA cheerleaders often had to perform cheers in the cold and on rain soaked football fields but they were always there to cheer their teams on.

Whether it was 4th down and 1-yard to go, supporting the teams after a tough loss or helping to celebrate a victory, the football players and coaches could always count on those gold pom-poms to keep everyone motivated.

Whether your were atop a cheerleader pyramid, waving your pom-poms in the air or yelling encouragement through a megaphone, we always knew you had our back.

And as you know, the players loved your halftime routines as they often danced at halftime right along with you. And who doesn’t love busting through a paper banner before the games?

And for that, the IYAA players and coaches would like to thank the IYAA A, B & C-Team Cheerleaders, and their Cheer Coaches, for keeping IYAA Gladiator fans pumped up throughout the regular season and playoffs.
