Membership Matters: Recognizing Active Members

Athlete Safety & Membership Integrity
At USA Cheer, the safety and well-being of athletes is our top priority. That’s why we strongly encourage all parents, athletes, and organizations to verify that coaches, choreographers, and other professionals that engage with athletes are current USA Cheer members in good standing. Our featured members list showcases individuals who are actively part of our community and meet the standards of eligibility, background screening, and required training. Additionally, USA Cheer members have agreed to follow the Minor Athlete Abuse Protection Policies and the USA Cheer Code of Conduct and are subject to investigation of violations.

If an individual does not have a USA Cheer Membership, this could be for various reasons, including but not limited to: they may not have applied for membership, may not yet have renewed their membership, or they may not be eligible for membership. USA Cheer strongly encourages organizations to require individuals to obtain membership in order to work with cheer and STUNT athletes and conduct other due diligence.
