Ohio Cheerleading Thank you for your interest in the Ohio Cheer program!

All participants in tryouts must provide a copy of insurance and a physical within the previous six months (new NCAA rule) We strongly recommend that if you are interested in the program that you tryout in the Spring as more positions are open. During the Fall tryout there will be 8 positions (4 male/base and 4 female/flyer). Please check our web site regularly for up to date information. Thank you again for your interest in OHIO!
