Boston College Eagles Cheerleaders

Through an outstanding mix of academics and athletics, Boston College boasts a tradition of excellence through some of the top athletic teams in the country. As part of the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), the Boston College cheerleaders and pom squad are a group of energetic and athletic students, who are devoted to the traditions of BC and its school spirit. Our Cheerleaders and Pom Squad not only cheer for top-caliber sports, but also enjoy travel to summer camp, football games, bowl games, post-season tournaments, and sometimes... competition! Both spirit teams have the opportunity to experience televised appearances and huge crowds. Our Cheerleaders and Pom Squad enjoy the best seats in the house while both on and off the court, for all BC home sporting events. And thanks to a sponsorship by Under Armour, all cheerleaders enjoy Under Armour sneakers, warm-ups, t-shirts and sweatshirts, and other Boston College gear. All seniors receive a book scholarship and the entire team enjoys gymnastic lessons at a local gym at no cost. Boston College cheerleading and Pom Squad both offer the chance to build long-lasting friendships, team camaraderie, and the opportunity to experience BC athletics at its finest.
