SUFFOLK CHEER TEAM

 Thank you for inquiring about the Suffolk County Community College Cheer Team.

Suffolk Cheer Team can be seen supporting Suffolk CC Men’s and Women’s Basketball as well as performing and spotting at LICCA and Youth Cheerleading events. The team also participates in many charitable events.

As student-athletes, Suffolk Cheerleaders must balance school and an active cheer schedule. Cheerleaders must be full-time students and must maintain a 2.0 grade point average. Our practice schedule is on Tuesdays & Thursdays 4:00-6:00pm throughout the season. Please take this into consideration when scheduling classes.

Prior to trying-out, you must have medical clearance from your doctor. Physical forms can be picked up in the athletic office or downloaded off the website. You can find these forms by following these steps: on the home page navigate to "Inside Athletics," click on "forms," and print out BOTH physical forms. These forms must be signed and stamped by your physician.  

During tryouts, the coach will determine each athlete's skill level, sportsmanship, leadership abilities, and crowd presence. Selection of cheerleaders is based upon the sole discretion of the coach. Varsity experience required. Cheer candidates should possess strong stunt, tumble, jump, dance and cheer skills.

Please contact Coach Caputo if you are interested in attending along with information about your cheerleading experience.
