Welcome to Dacula Cheerleading

Dacula Cheerleading is governed not only by DAA, but also the Gwinnett Football League. Our Cheerleaders have a very close, wonderful working relationship with our Football program. Registration is open to anyone in the 1st through 8th grade. Children in Kindergarten would be eligible for a mascot position on a squad requesting a mascot.

Philosophy

The primary role for DAA Cheerleading is to provide support for all DAA athletes.  This support is generated by boosting parent and community spirit, motivating teams and crowds at sporting events and serving as an enthusiastic role model throughout the community.  As a secondary component we believe that competition builds character, develops leadership skills and promote confidence within our cheerleading squads.  It is these two roles that will allow our cheerleaders to improve their skills, developed exercise habits and build life lasting friendships.
