Melissa at Eagles Cheerleaders SemiFinals on Wednesday evening

This month is our Tenth Anniversary and to celebrate we’re posting some of our all-time favorite photos.


Houston Texans Cheerleader Samantha at 2007 P-R-O Convention

 

The P-R-O Convention is like the Super Bowl for UltimateCheerleaders. It’s our chance to see hundreds of cheerleaders and dancers from around the country (and the world) representing nearly every sport and league. My first chance to attend was in 2007, where I snapped this photo of Samantha. Samantha was a member of the inaugural Houston Texans Cheerleaders, represented her squad at the 2004 Pro Bowl, and was the last of the original Texans Cheerleaders to retire.

 

The Monster Hockey Girls are the Dance Team for the Lake Erie (Cleveland) Monsters of the AHL. The are under the Direction of Katie Gibbons, a former Cleveland Cavaliers Girl and Orlando Magic Dancer, who was brought in two years ago to create an exciting new dance team for the organization.

Kim A. at Redskins Draft Day

This is the photo that started it all. I started the site in April of 2004, but for the first few months, all I did was re-post articles. There was no original reporting. Then I read the Redskins Cheerleaders were going to be at Redskins Draft Day. Armed with just a little point-and-shoot camera, my photos didn’t turn out all that great. And I wasn’t sure if I would even try anything like that again. But the reaction from the readers was overwhelming. So I decided to upgrade my camera and keep shooting. The rest is history.

The final spot on our 2014 Toronoto Argos Cheerleaders is up to the fans. Watch the three videos and then vote in the poll below to help us pick who gets the final blue rose!

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Cheerleaders are in search of dynamic candidates to join one of the NFL’s most elite cheerleading squads. This season, the Buccaneers Cheerleaders will select between 28 and 34 members for the team, which entertains fans at all Buccaneers home games and makes frequent appearances at community events and corporate functions. The cheerleaders may also have the opportunity to travel around the country, and beyond, as ambassadors of the Buccaneers.

The Buccaneers will host prep classes on upcoming Tuesday and Thursday evenings at The Corral, located at the University of South Florida Sun Dome (4202 E. Fowler Ave., Tampa, FL 33620).
