Ultimate Cheerleaders

The Clippers have announced the members of their dance team for the upcoming NBA season. The team has traditionally been 16 dancers, but last year they expanded to 17. This year they added yet another dancer to make the squad 18 strong. I can’t wait to see this extremely talented and beautifully diverse team wearing red, white, and blue on the floor at Staples Center this fall. Congratulations ladies! (Click here for more.)

Sports Illustrated: The Lady Panthers are no more. A tweet from the Florida Panthers PR account Wednesday afternoon revealed that the team’s cheerleading squad will not survive to celebrate a 10th anniversary season in 2014-15. We present this gallery in memoriam. [Click here]

The Indianapolis Colts Cheerleaders will take the field in brand new uniforms next month. I wouldn’t call this a full scale overhaul. More like taking the old unis up quite a few notches, with more sparkles and more blue accents from head to toe, and they’ve added a new jacket. The organization has been so obliging as to post a whole gallery of photos so we can appreciate all the nuances. LOVE that. Wish everyone did it. Thank you Colts Cheerleaders!

Here are a few before and afters so you can fully appreciate the differences. Befores to the left, Afters to the right. (Or above and below, in the case of the boots.)


Would this be a post about the Colts without a shout out to Crystal Anne? I think not. Woohoo!
