Introducing The Philadelphia Spinners Fly Girls
What’s the secret to a successful sports franchise?
The answer is Cheerleaders/Dancers.
We’ve covered dance teams from football, arena football, baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer, indoor soccer, rugby, tennis and now ultimate! (Some of you may know the sport as ultimate frisbee, but because of trademark issues the preferred shorthand name is now just ultimate.)
The Philadelphia Spinners are a new team in the American Ultimate Disc League (AUDL) and this past Sunday they had a team photo shoot in the steps of the Art Museum. (You know, the steps that Rocky runs up.)
And of course the Spinners dance team, the Fly Girls were there as well.
The Fly Girls under the Direction of Adrienne Santoleri and Tori Closson-Simpson
Players, Dancers, Coaches & DJs
And the Fly Girls posed for individual photos as well.
After the shoot, some of the girls tossed the disc around. A few played ultimate in high school and college.
So in return a few of the guys grabbed some pom poms.
In the afternoon everyone reassembled in Fairmount Park where they rehearsed and performed a walk-through for the home opener on Saturday, April 14th
The Spinners and The Fly Girls will be in action at Franklin Field next Saturday at 8:05. See you there!
