Welcome to the Chesapeake Bay Cheerleading 2016 Season!!
The Chesapeake Bay Cheerleading Organization is a recreational league that was created to teach our children team cohesion and the basics of sideline and competitive cheerleading. Cheerleading is a commitment and every practice is important. Cheerleading is a team sport, and you need to practice as a team as well as individually.
*Please be sure to send plenty of water with your cheerleader to each practice to keep hydrated.
Find us on Facebook "Chesapeake Bay Piranhas Cheerleading" we provide updates, reminders and announcements.
