El Segundo Youth Cheer is an award-winning youth cheer program open to individuals ages 5-14 of all ability levels that cheer for the Youth Football Teams & compete in local and national competitions.  El Segundo Youth Cheer has had at least one (and sometimes more) teams win a league championship every year since 2019 and during the 2023-2024 season two teams won National Titles!  

ES Youth Cheer provides the younger athletes in the program the opportunity to learn the sport of cheerleading while they try out various other sports and community programs. As the athletes get older, there is an expectation of increased commitment and preparation for trying out for the high school cheer program.  We have four program goals:

1. All of the athletes have fun, love cheerleading, and experience being part of a team.

2. All of the athletes gain confidence performing in front of and leading a crowd.

3. All of the athletes learn to perform the basic fundamentals of motions, jumps, and stunting successfully and increase their individual skills in each of those areas each season.

4. Athletes who remain in the program for several years will learn more complex stunts and be prepared for high school cheer.

All coaches have completed YCADA safety courses, Heads Up Concussion Training, & Basic CPR/First Aid.
