Cheer And Stunt

The top priority of the Nevada Cheer/Stunt program is to support the athletic teams and the University. We are ambassadors to the community, the fans and the students.

The University of Nevada Cheer/Stunt Team is to be compiled of the most well rounded, all American cheerleaders, who love to cheer! At Nevada, we look for elite skill levels in all areas and encourage our athletes to be as well rounded as possible in order to ensure the best experience for our fans, our community and most of all, the PACK!

Thank you for your interest in the University of Nevada! GO PACK!
