How many cheerleaders are on the team?
The Boise State Cheerleading Squad size fluctuates from year to year based upon the tryout pool. Some years we’ve had as many as 21 women and 6 men. Other years we’ve had 14 women and 12 men. We’ve also had years of 15 women and 1 man. Our philosophy is to take talented and strong cheerleaders and let the team size determine itself. If we have a large number of talented applicants at tryouts we will take them. If we do not have talent pool at tryouts, we opt for a smaller team under the ultimate goal of having a smaller excellent team. Often, the decision on team size is determined during the judging process at tryouts.
