After 2 weeks of spring auditions, 3 arduous rounds of eliminations and 8 weeks of vigorous fitness conditioning and rehearsals, a select group of ladies have been chosen to wear the elite Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders uniform for the 2010-2011 season.
The final team is comprised of 34 young women ranging in age from 18 to 30, representing 12 states. There are 26 returning veterans and 8 rookies on this year’s squad. Their first official appearance together will be on August 12, 2010 at the Cowboys preseason game against the Oakland Raiders.
Formed in 1972, the organization redefined cheerleading history when then Cowboys President, Tex Schramm, decided to bring a new era of sports entertainment to the field of Texas Stadium. The team added glamour and excitement to the NFL game day experience, and quickly became a symbol of American pop culture. Today they are recognized around the world for their unparalleled talent and professionalism, as well as their iconic star spangled uniform.
The cheerleaders perform at all of the Cowboys home games, make countless appearances for charities and organizations across the United States, and star in their own reality TV show on CMT, Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making The Team. The DCC show group has proudly entertained U.S. military personnel around the world since 1979, making more international tours with the USO than any other entertainment group in the world.
The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders exemplify the high standards of the Dallas Cowboys Football Club and proudly represent their hometowns, their country and fans everywhere.
