Under the direction of Eric Anderson, the Long Beach State Cheer team is made up of a competitive co-ed team that performs and cheers at all Men’s and Women’s Volleyball and Basketball home games in our pyramid. Being such a competitive hard working group, the team travels to select Big West opponent games, Big West Championship Tournaments and NCAA playoffs.

Outside of the many events for our sports teams, the Cheer Team also is a group of dedicated competitors. This past season, the Cheer Team was crowned as the 2009 USA national champions when they took home first place at the USA Collegiate National Championships in Anaheim, CA. Also, the team was awarded a part-paid bid to attend NCA Championships this coming year. So make sure to watch out for this team this season!
