Moravian College Cheerleader Tryouts

***If you are interested in trying out for the 2012-13 squad, contact Coach Erin Oleksa at cheerleading@moravian.edu. The dates for the tryouts will be posted on this web site; however, all upperclassmen candidates will need to attend a mandatory informational meeting prior to trying out.

Any full time student accepted to or attending Moravian College is encouraged to tryout for the cheerleading team. While it is helpful to have previous experience, it is not required.

Athletes trying out for the squad in late August, will be taught a dance, cheer, and chant throughout the tryout practices. Additionally, cheerleaders will stunt throughout the practice sessions at different positions. Finally, any gymnastics may be demonstrated, but it is not required.

During tryouts, candidates will be judged on the above skills as well as flexibility, enthusiasm, voice projection, ability to learn, and cooperativeness. Judging will take place throughout the practice sessions by the coaches at Moravian.

There will be a meeting for interested upperclassmen, currently attending Moravian, in April. Incoming freshmen and transfer students need to email the coach by June 1st in order to be considered for tryouts.

Sports Medical forms can be found at here. Additionally, cheerleaders will receive an email with the preseason tryout scheduled for the end of August.
