Season:
Cheerleading is considered both a CYO “Athletic Activity” which can act in support for
other sports teams and/or a CYO Sport in which athletes perform in competition.
Therefore, CYO Cheerleading in support of other sports teams is not restricted to a
particular season. CYO competitions are a sport and are subject to the “season dates”
that will be established.
