Welcome to the University of Tennessee Martin Cheerleading website.  Thank you for your interest in our program.

The UT Martin Cheer Squad is composed of 16 members.    At the present time the squad is  All-Girl.

  We are proud members of the Ohio Valley Conference.  We cheer for Football, Men's Basketball, Women's Basketball and some Volleyball games.

Scholarships are available and all uniforms and accessories are provided for team members.

If you would like to visit a practice session, please call and let us know.  We would be happy to talk with you or arrange for you to work out with us.

As the program continues to grow we have several exciting ideas and plans for the future of the Skyhawk Cheer Squad.  Our goals are simple; entertain the crowd, maintain school spirit, and have fun with the athletics involved in cheerleading!

 

"Quality is an attribute that we strive for in all UT Martin academic and extracurricular programs. The cheer squad is definitely a group of quality student athletes. They have thrilled fans and represented UT Martin in an extraordinary manner. The coaches and team members have set a new standard in entertainment and school spirit."

Dr. Nick Dunagan,

Quote from Ms. Bettye Giles

"Years of association with collegiate athletics has impressed on me the true value of support from spirit groups. A perfect example is the UT Martin cheer squad. These spirit leaders have Skyhawk fans standing, clapping, yelling, and responding to their enthusiasm. Their excitement not only 'pumps up' the crowd in support of our players but provides thrilling entertainment for the fans in the stands!!"

Bettye Giles, Professor Emeritus

Former Director of UTM Women's Athletics

From our Faculty Athletic Representative:   

"The UT Martin cheerleaders have added fun and excitement to UT Martin's athletic events in their first year under the direction of Coach Fran Spears and her staff. They are student-athletes in the truest sense. As the Faculty Athletic Representative for our athletic programs, it is extremely gratifying for me to see this group of outstanding young men and women come so far so fast. "
