The SCMS cheerleading team is a program that is primarily dedicated to representing the SCMS community by cheering for their sports teams, competing at competitions, and being exemplary role models to their peers by developing leadership, teamwork, goal setting, and responsibility skills. They also develop physical skills such as stunting, jumping, and tumbling to improve endurance and strength.

The team earned the runner-up trophy this year when they placed 2nd in the 2025 Chesterfield County Cheerleading Competition! They also won 1st in 2024, 3rd in 2023, and 5th in 2022 and 2020.

There is an informational meeting on May 21st from 4:30-5:30pm in the SCMS auditorium. 

For the 2025-26 school year, the season will begin in August and will end after the annual county middle school cheerleading competition in February of 2026. There are boys and girls  basketball games, weekly after school practices, and other possible time commitments that cheerleaders are required to attend.

For the 2025-2026 squad, dates for tryouts have been set for August 25th-28th from 2:15-4:30pm in the cafeteria. A sports physical, concussion form, and tryout packet must be submitted on or before the first day of tryouts. The physical must have taken place after May 1st of 2025. We may select up to twenty cheerleaders (16 on the competition team and up to 4 alternates).

The finalized team will be posted in the link below on August 29th at 8am and on Coach Parker’s classroom door on September 2nd.
