Cheerleading’s roots date back to 1898 when University of Minnesota med student Johnny Campbell assembled a team to cheer on the school’s football team from the sidelines during a losing streak.

Talking the group through an organized cheer with a megaphone, Johnny Campbell is often considered the very first cheerleader.1

By the mid-1920s, cheerleading was a co-ed sport and began incorporating elements of acrobatics, gymnastics, dance, and tumbling.12

Cheer squad names can boost your team’s confidence — and convey that confidence to your competition. You’ve practiced hard and perfected your skills, so use your cheer team name to show them what you’ve got!
