There is a new sense of optimism in the Valley of the Sun. With the number one overall pick in the 2018 NBA draft, the Phoenix Suns selected a potential franchise changing player in Deandre Ayton, the former five star prospect from the University of Arizona and the consensus top overall draft prospect. It is hoped that he will evolve into a difference making pro player and one that will stick around after his initial rookie contract expires. Having played his high school and college ball in the area, Ayton might prefer to stay at home instead of shopping his services around to the highest bidder. So things are definitely looking up in the Valley of the Sun.
And with the advent of this year’s dance team auditions, there is a renewed sense of optimism as well for those of us who enjoy the game day entertainment. Every year, a new group of dancers courageously give it their all with the hope of making the cut and securing one of the coveted spots on the Phoenix Suns Dance Team. And I was there for a portion of the proceedings.
This was the sixth time that I have made the trek from Los Angeles to Phoenix to cover the Suns Dancers auditions. Having photographed two games with Phoenix Suns, I can tell you that the dance team is an integral part of the game day experience, so I was excited to renew my relationship with the organization and to see the new crop of hopefuls and the returning veterans.
The Charlotte Honey Bees have an amazing squad of beautiful and talented dancers. They are one of my favorite squads at P-R-O and I try to photograph as many of them as possible for these features. And as you can imagine, our next 2018 P-R-O Convention All Star is another one of those amazing Honey Bees. A second year veteran and cute as a button, introducing Honey Bee Cassandra…our latest 2018 P-R-O Convention All Star.
We are coming down to the wire with respect to our coverage of the 2018 P-R-O Convention in Atlanta, but there are still a few more awesome cheerleaders that we would like to showcase. So, check back soon to see who is next. And for more cheerleader articles, please visit my personal blog: thehottestdanceteam.wordpress.com.
One of the things I like about the Washington Redskins Cheerleaders is that they bring a diverse group of cheerleaders and that they wear several of their game day uniforms. And this makes for some interesting and alluring photos.
Our next 2018 P-R-O Convention All Star is one of those impressive Washington Redskins Cheerleaders, introducing fourth year veteran Tonee.
We are coming to the end of our coverage of the 2018 P-R-O Convention in Atlanta, but we still have a few more wonderful cheerleaders to highlight. So check back soon to see who we feature next. And for more cheerleader articles, please visit my personal blog: thehottestdanceteam.wordpress.com.
Every year, the Houston Texans Cheerleaders bring the largest group of cheerleaders to P-R-O and this year, there must have been over 20 new rookie HTC in attendance. There were only six or seven veterans on that squad and I was fortunate to be able to shoot a few familiar faces. Our next 2018 P-R-O Convention All Star is one of those veterans, introducing second year Houston Texans Cheerleader Samantha.
There’s still more All Star features to come, so check back soon to see who is next. And for more cheerleader articles, please visit my personal blog: thehottestdanceteam.wordpress.com.
