Fulfill Your Child's Cheerleading Dream

Does your child dream of cheering under “Friday Night Lights” one day? Then Griffin Rec at Louisiana Athletics is the place to start!

We offer a wonderful cheerleading experience for girls to begin their journey to cheering on their school sidelines.

Our teams are made up of kids from around Ascension Parish who wish to one day try out for their local middle and high school teams.

Our cheerleaders will have tons of fun as they learn the fundamentals of cheer. Our teams are welcoming of all students, no matter their experience level.

Sign-ups for new members begin April 1, 2025. Once spots are full, a waiting list will be started.
