Ultimate Cheerleaders

We continue our coverage of the best of P-R-O with another one of those wonderful Baltimore Ravens Cheerleaders.  Introducing Kellie Lee, another amazing 2013 P-R-O Convention All Star and a four year veteran Ravens Cheerleader.

So many amazing cheerleaders…and we still have a few more to feature here.

 

As we begin to wind up our coverage of the 2013 P-R-O Convention, we turn our attention to a clutch of Baltimore Ravens Cheerleaders.  I said previously that this group of young women was very impressive and looked resplendent in their purple game day uniforms, which were made by The Line Up.  And the whole group was kind enough to pose for me before the festivities began on the first day.

In this edition we feature another one of those amazing Ravens Cheerleaders, Emily…our latest 2013 P-R-O Convention All Star.

One of the dance teams that I was particularly impressed with was the Jacksonville Axe Maidens of the USA Rugby League.  They brought several girls, three of which James and I got to know a little better at a chance encounter over dinner.   Needless to say, they were quite nice and interesting to speak with.

The following day, I was able to photograph those three girls in more detail.  Today we feature our third Axe Maiden, Courtney, who looked lovely in her Angela King designed uniform.  So, without further ado, introducing Courtney our next 2013 P-R-O Convention All Star.

Only a few more girls left!  Stay tuned to see who is next.

Our next featured cheerleader was in all likelihood, the tallest cheerleader at P-R-O…and tall is good in my book.  Very good.  In this edition, we turn our attention to four year veteran Seattle Sea Gal Carli, a 2013 P-R-O Convention All Star.

We still have a few more cheerleaders to recognize, so please keep an eye out for these amazing women.

In our second featurette of three Seattle Sea Gals in a row, we focus the spotlight on another three year veteran, Jessica.  I have noticed that the Sea Gals have a couple of girls on their squad that rock that short hair look, somewhat of a rarity in this era of long hair flipping cheerleaders.  And it works and Jessica stood out amongst the bevy of beautiful pro cheerleaders.  So for this and her amazing dance ability, Jessica is a 2013 P-R-O Convention All Star.

 

The Dallas Cowboys are holding training camp in Oxnard, California once again and as usual, they brought the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders to help celebrate the opening of another season of football.  And I was there to capture all the action for UltimateCheerleaders.com

The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders are the most renown and famous squad in all of professional cheerleading.  They are the ultimate cheerleaders.  And they were once again in my part of the country to add a little glamor to the opening ceremonies of the 2013 Dallas Cowboys training camp.

As we begin to wind down our coverage of the 2013 P-R-O Convention, we feature the first of three Seattle Sea Gals in a row.  I first saw this wonderful cheerleader at last year’s convention and she made quite an impression.  And this year was no different.  In this edition of the 2013 P-R-O Convention All Star, we recognize three year veteran Tamaria.

You know, professional cheerleaders have to be physically fit and it’s no secret.  It’s a part of the job.  They have to look good in the uniform.  And they all know it.  So I don’t feel too bad when I say that I think that the squad that was the most physically fit was the Charlotte Lady Cats.

For the past two years, Brandii McCoy’s Lady Cats have been clearly the most impressive in this aspect.  Top to bottom, they look best in their skimpy outfits.  So my props to them.  And in this edition, I want to highlight one Lady Cat who consistently stands out for her good looks, physically fitness, and dance ability.  I originally saw her a few years ago as a Charlotte Checkmate, but she moved onto the Lady Cats.  Introducing Kristi, our next 2013 P-R-O Convention All Star.

We still have a few more cheerleaders to recognize, so stay tuned!
