It’s football season again! Well…pre-season football and you know what that means. The Dallas Cowboys drove down from their training camp in Oxnard to battle the Chargers’ second teamers in a titanic battle of the bench warmers. On this night, the Chargers second team bested the Cowboys second team, 27 – 7. At least the Cowboys found their back up QB of the future in Brandon Weedon, who was an efficient 13 of 17 for 107 yards and a TD.
If the football was less than stellar, the Charger Girls were simply breathtaking in their military inspired uniforms, a tribute to the servicemen and servicewomen who have sacrificed so much for this country.
San Diego is a military town, the Navy and Marine Corps in particular, and each year the Chargers honor them with their Salute to the Military night. As you can tell, the main feature of this night is the Charger Girls wearing special military themed uniforms, which is a nice way to honor our men and women in uniform.
This game was our first look at the 2014 Charger Girls in action and this is a year of change for the squad with 14 rookies making up half the team. But before we get to the newbies, let’s begin with 2014 Captains: Angela M., Natalie, Katelyn and Clarisse.
Did I mention that there were a lot of rookies on this year’s team? And one of them was our first Charger Girl of the Day for 2014…introducing Bridget J.
(more…)
I first saw our final honoree at last year’s P-R-O Convention and she made quite an impression. She was a rookie, but she owned the floor and was anything but a wall flower. To say she had a presence was an understatement and you could tell that she would stand out amongst a crowd of talented professional cheerleaders…let’s just say she had a certain charisma about her.
Fast forward to this year and her sophomore campaign and my impression of her changed little. They say that you want to stand out at auditions, and those that do are likely the ones that people in the last row of the stadium will be watching on game day. Well, I was up front at P-R-O and I was watching her.
Our final 2014 P-R-O Convention All Star hails from the Houston Texans Cheerleaders…introducing Caitlyn.
This concludes our coverage of the 2014 P-R-O Convention, the premier professional dance convention. 300+ hundred cheerleaders, 7000 images, and endless hours of post processing…all to present to you, the very best cheerleaders from professional sports, the thirty three 2014 P-R-O Convention All Stars.
Only 11 more months until we begin this process all over again!
Did I mention that I really enjoyed the Tennessee Titans Cheerleaders this year? I will say it one more time…they have one of the best looking squads in the NFL and they have some great looking uniforms. This all makes for some wonderful photo ops and our final Tennessee Titans Cheerleader that we are honoring here is Heather…our next 2014 P-R-O Convention All Star.
Good job, Tennessee Titans Cheerleaders…see you next year.
We are coming down to the end of our coverage, but there’s one more girl to honor…

The Gotham City Cheerleaders have always left a lasting impression at P-R-O and they got new uniforms this year. I was fortunate to be able to snag one of them GCCs in their new attire to photograph. Her name is Kaitlyn and I think you can see why she is our latest 2014 P-R-O Convention All Star.
Only a couple more left, see who’s next!

The Tennessee Titans Cheerleaders looked amazing in their game day uniforms at P-R-O and I appreciate their effort because they have some really amazingly beautiful girls. It really does make for a more compelling photograph when cheerleaders look their best and wear their uniforms. So, my thanks to the Tennessee Titans Cheerleaders.
So let’s continue our coverage and introduce our next 2014 P-R-O Convention All Star…Tennessee Titans Cheerleader Hannah.
Our next honoree comes from Yokohama, Japan and she specifically came to the United States to cheer for the Atlanta Falcons. So let’s meet Rie, our latest P-R-O Convention All Star.
We are not finished yet…we still have a few more talented cheerleaders to recognize.
The Wizard Girls brought nearly their entire squad, which was quite an accomplishment because their season had ended and their auditions were upcoming soon (actually, they’re going on right now!). I guess that’s the problem with the NBA team and the P-R-O convention…the timing can be an issue.
But the Wizard Girls always make a splash and it doesn’t hurt their their director, Derric Whitfield, is one of the most popular instructors. That means great dance routines and their squad members always help out with the instruction. And one of Derric’s Wizard Girl instructions caught my eye for her beauty, dance ability and emotion. She is our next 2014 P-R-O Convention All Star and her name is Emily T.
