Welcome to Wisconsin Spirit Championships!

Cheer 1 Comment

We have worked extremely hard over the past years to establish, promote, and administer exciting, impartial, and dynamic competitive events throughout the upper-Midwest. When selecting a performance/competitive opportunity for your team, you must consider a variety of factors including price, the actual teams competing, location, and, perhaps most important, the experience your kids will have, all things considered. The experience of the kids, after all, is your priority and responsibility.

The priority and responsibility of giving your kids a healthy experience sets up a factor of trust in the host organization when selecting a competition, camp, seminar, or any other event where your kids’ experience is at risk. We are confident at Wisconsin Spirit that we have earned the trust of hundreds of schools/organizations throughout the Midwest, earned the trust of thousands of friends/families who have come to support their kids at our events, and earned the trust of thousands of kids who participate in our events as athletes. Further, the other factors such as price, location, etc. have been carefully scrutinized to give the best experience possible – premier facilities, state-of-the-art sound systems, multiple mats with extended warm-up, and, most important, judges you can trust to be impartial, fair, and knowledgeable. We believe that these features should be the standard – which is why we have been setting the standard in the upper-Midwest for years.

You can trust the experience you will get at our events. You can trust that we are here to help empower you, the coach, to give every one of your squad members the opportunity to be an achiever and a champion, and the dignity of being recognized as an athlete.

Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to seeing you all later this year.
