About Issaquah Cheer
IHS Cheer is a yearlong commitment that runs in the months of June, and August through February each season. All Squad members cheer for football and basketball games, as well as additional varsity sports as assigned to show support for all IHS athletics. Our select competition team competes in Washington State Cheer Competitions as well as UCA National Competitions on a rotational basis. Our squad members are involved in a variety of additional school opportunities, including choir, sports med, peer tutoring, ASB and more. IHS cheerleaders are strong, dedicated athletes capable of balancing full plates and high expectations.
