Hofstra Cheerleading Time Line of Success

At Hofstra University it’s more than palm palms and fancy chants for the cheerleading team. Hofstra cheerleaders have been nothing but a success, winning seven national championships in the last ten years. Head coach Christine Farina and assistant coach Matt Jones spend several months of hard work developing one routine that will bring home the gold medal. Four consecutive wins in the UCA nationals requires hard work and effort from all team mates.  Players practice up to four days a week during the regular season, and seven days a week during competition season. Cheerleading isn´t just for women here at Hofstra University. Men play a key role in the acrobatic stunts performed throughout the routine. In order to achieve the highest score, Hofstra needs to use their men to perfect difficult stunts.  The team is one of the most successful athletic organizations in the university.
