The Urban Knight Spirit Group is comprised of two teams, Coed Cheer and Dance. These teams will support the University and Athletic Department at all home basketball and volleyball games as well as special appearances, photo shoots, events and fundraisers. We will also be active in the community as a face for the University. Our goal for the Urban Knight Spirit Group is to create individuals who are successful both on and off the performance floor.
All spirit group members will be issued uniforms, warm-ups, bags, and shoes. Participants are required to purchase briefs.
We will also be working on an exhibition routine that both teams will perform together at local events. This routine will be a competition style routine consisting of dance, motions, tumbling, stunts and jumps.
Both teams will practice two days during the week. (Coed Tuesday/Wednesday and Dance Wednesday/Thursday). We will also meet for fitness sessions in addition to practice. We understand that the ART U curriculum can be very demanding therefore we promote efficient time management and offer academic support to all athletes. Athletes will receive priority registration in order to accommodate practice and game schedules.
