Youth football and cheerleading are not just about competition—they're about the thrill of being part of a team, learning new tricks, and growing in a positive, supportive environment.

So whether you're here to throw that perfect pass, lead the crowd in a spirited chant, or simply have fun, you're in the right place to get started!
Why Is Football and Cheerleading Important for Youth?
Youth football and cheerleading aren’t just about touchdowns and cheers—they’re about so much more! These sports teach kids valuable life lessons that last far beyond the field.
1. Building Confidence: Every practice, every game, and every cheer helps kids believe in themselves and their abilities. From mastering a play to hitting a perfect stunt, the sense of accomplishment builds confidence that spills over into other areas of life.
2. Teamwork Makes the Dream Work: Football and cheerleading teach kids how to work together, communicate, and support each other. Whether it's blocking for a teammate or rooting for a fellow cheerleader, they learn the power of teamwork and how important it is to have each other's backs.
3. Fitness and Fun: These sports keep kids active, healthy, and strong while having a blast. It’s the perfect combination of fitness and fun that keeps them moving and motivated.
4. Developing Leadership Skills: Whether they’re calling out plays, leading cheers, or stepping up when their team needs them most, kids develop leadership skills that’ll serve them well both on and off the field.
5. Building Lifelong Friendships: From the first practice to the last game, kids create friendships that go beyond the sport. They learn to connect with others, celebrate victories, and stay strong through challenges together.
At Kanawha RedHawks, we believe every kid deserves the opportunity to experience the excitement and growth that comes with being part of a football or cheerleading team. It’s not just about winning—it’s about learning, growing, and having fun every step of the way!
