Cheer Audition F.A.Q.

What will the audition process look like?

The preliminary round of auditions will be a virtual video submission. We will select approx. 50 finalists to attend in-person finalist workshops. After the workshops, there will be a Final Showcase event where the final team will be announced.

How can I best prepare for auditions?

We will host in-person prep classes in January, February, and March. We highly encourage you to engage in class to prepare for auditions. REGISTER HERE

If I make the squad, what is the time commitment?

The cheerleaders practice Tuesday and Thursday evenings starting mid-May until the end of the football season with occasional weeks off. Cheerleaders perform at all home games and participate in appearances in the Indianapolis area.

Is this a full time job?

No, this is a part-time job. Cheerleaders are compensated for all games, practices and appearances. We do encourage all cheerleaders to have a full time job and/or be a full time student.
