About Southwest Washington
Youth Cheerleading
Southwest Washington Youth Cheerleading (SWYC) is thrilled to share some exciting news! SWYC has officially merged with Pacific Youth Cheerleading (PYC), bringing together two programs that share a passion for youth cheer, athlete development, and community.
What’s staying the same? Everything you love about SWYC. Families can continue to expect the same high-quality sideline cheer programs, camps, clinics, and supportive environment that SWYC has always provided. Our mission and commitment to our athletes remain stronger than ever.
What’s new? More opportunities to grow! Through this merge, SWYC athletes now have access to additional competition opportunities through PYC. These experiences help athletes build skills, confidence, and teamwork—while still enjoying the fun, spirit, and traditions of SWYC cheer.
Together, SWYC and PYC are creating even more pathways for athletes to grow, challenge themselves, and celebrate their love of cheerleading. We’re excited for this next chapter and can’t wait to continue supporting our athletes every step of the way, on the sidelines and beyond!

Cheerleading Q&A
What is it like being a Fall Sideline Cheerleader?
Each cheerleader is placed on a team with an experienced, educated coach and will attend practice twice a week based on when your coach schedules practice. Cheerleaders will get their chance to shine on Saturdays - Game Days!
Throughout the season, SWYC Cheerleaders learn chants, cheers, stunts, dances and cheerleading skills as well as leadership skills, good sportsmanship and what it means to be on a team.
What is Sideline Plus?
Sideline plus teams will practice and perform the traditional sideline season from August to October. They will then prepare and practice a Game Day performance routine to compete with in December and January. If you would like more info please email paccheerco@gmail.com.
