At Hillsborough Cheer, Dance & Gymnastics, competitive cheer is more than a sport. It’s a community where athletes of every level find their place and discover what they’re capable of. Whether your child is stepping onto the mat for the first time or is a seasoned competitor, our programs are designed to meet them where they are and grow with them every season.
We’re proud to be home to the UCA National Champions 2026, a reflection of the dedication our coaches pour into every athlete. That same culture of excellence has carried our alumni onto cheer programs at Division I universities across the region.

Our novice program is the perfect entry point for young athletes as early as age four who are looking for a structured and safe introduction to cheerleading. We focus on foundational progression with a convenient commitment of just one day per week for practice and tumbling. It is a fantastic way for families to experience the excitement of the sport through two annual competitions while building confidence and teamwork in a fun, low-pressure environment.

Our elite program is designed for athletes who are ready to take their skills to the next level through increased training and a higher degree of challenge. By grouping team members by both age and skill (Elite Levels 1 – Worlds 5), we provide a competitive environment that includes two practices, tumbling, and conditioning each week. This intensive focus prepares our athletes to excel across four annual events, making it the perfect choice for those committed to reaching their peak potential and competing at the highest level.
