Spirit All-Stars Special Needs Cheer Team – Open House July 21, 2013

Spirit Zone Too, Home of the National Champion Spirit All Stars is pleased to announce that it will again this year be having a “Special Athlete” All-Star Cheerleading team for the 2013-2014 season. Throughout the 2012-2013 competition season, the ‘Alexandrites’ competed three talented special needs athletes with the help of other all-stars throughout the Spirit program as well as athletes from Greenwich High School Varsity Cheerleading team. Their competitive season ended with a performance in Baltimore, MD at the All-Star Challenge National Championship Competition, where they were named National Champions!  The team works together building spirited athletes and preparing each athlete with new skills while building confidence and gaining courage to take the competition stage and perform a 2 minute routine!

The team practices once a week with Coach Melissa, a Southern Connecticut State University student studying Special Education and Elementary Education with a concentration in Psychology. As a veteran Spirit All Star cheerleader, Melissa has set her passion on building and developing a Special Athletes program in each of our three locations! Greenwich’s Spirit Zone Too, is very proud to say it was the first Spirit location to host a Special Athletes program, as well as the first Special Athlete’s program in Lower Fairfield County.
