GENERAL INFORMATION
Cal Cheerleading is a team of spirited individuals who support Cal Athletics through traditional collegiate cheerleading. Those performances span through Cal Athletics, campus, alumni and community events.
Cal Cheerleading currently functions under the direction of an advisor and coach. Physical and medical support is available through the Cal athletic department.
All current squad members must audition for each successive year in which they wish to participate. A squad of no more than 20 members will be selected for each season.
You will need to provide your own make-up, hair products, and under garments.
Each member of the squad will receive 2 home football, men’s basketball, and women’s basketball tickets. Tickets to other contests, i.e., bowl games, NCAA tournament and conference tournaments will be issued at the discretion of the Athletic Department. This is subject to change.
In order to audition, you must be a current registered Cal student with at least a 2.0 GPA or have received a letter of acceptance and have committed for Fall 2024 by the audition date (April 28).
Fill out and complete all documents listed under Required Forms in the application. This includes a personal photo, resume, unofficial transcripts, Letter of Acceptance (if applicable), and physical or doctor clearance.
You will be required to carefully read and sign the Cal Cheer Team Agreement, Code of Conduct and Travel Policies plus the Strike System which states guidelines for all members of the team should you be selected as a member. These forms will be provided once the team is announced.
