KCFC Cheerleading is a positive experience that gives girls a sense of belonging, develops lasting friendships, and promotes physical fitness. It is a TEAM sport, and requires everyone’s FULL participation. Area Directors and coaches are bound by the Kansas City Football and Cheerleader Club’s Constitution. It is an excellent program but for it to work, the cooperation of the Cheerleaders, Coaches, and most of all YOU, the Parents are needed.
