Pom Pom Squad

Squad Members: Kristen Stegeman, Whitney Brumbaugh, Megan Ginster, Katie Miller, Amanda Ley, Kelsey Long, Daphne Whitaker, Sarah Anderson, Sierra Baker, and Hannah Gerverler.

 

The pom pon squad at Quincy Notre Dame is a year round sport.  Try-Outs are held every May and summer practices start right up in June.  During the school year, the squad practices primarily before school.  The squad performs at home varisty football, boys soccer, and boys basketball as well as wrestling tournaments, girls basketball games, parades and various community service projects.  Traditions include hosting an after school camp for gradeschool girls before a home football game and holding a winter camp for grade school girls with a performance at a basketball game.

 

The squad attends UDA camp every year.  This year, the girls received 3rd place with their home routine and a Superior trophy for the routines they all learned at camp.

 

The QND Pom Pon Squad also competes through the Illinois Drill Team Association.  Last year, they made it all the way to State with their Class A Pom routine and their Class A Dane routine.

 

This year looks to be very promising for this talented group of young ladies.  WIth a tight bond and high expections, the squad is working toward the goal of showing what Raider Pride is all about and making it to state again this year!
