IRVSRA is excited to team up with Titanium
Twist Cheerleading to offer a premium cheer experience to area individuals with special needs. In this
five month program, participants will learn a cheer
routine, then suit up in custom tailored IRVSRA
cheer uniforms and compete in front of thousands
of spectators at two fall events.
Due to the higher cost of this program, we
plan on having fundraisers to cover the additional
costs. We would love a group of IRVSRA Cheer
parents to start a booster club. This program
should be extraordinary!
DEADLINE:
Register any time, but there might be a mid-season
cut off as we get closer to performance dates to
allow for participants to learn the routine.
