Registration has begun for the 2016 Fredonia Cheerleading and Dance Competition. The event has been scheduled for Sun., Jan. 24, 2016 at the Steele Hall Fieldhouse.

Cost is $125 for cheerleading teams and $150 for dance teams. Online registration is available by following the link.

Questions should be directed to Fredonia Blue Devil cheerleading coach Katie Pucci-Schaefer at 716-673-3101 or by e-mailing her at ktpooch@yahoo.com.

In another development, Western New York high school Section VI has sanctioned the cheerleading portion of the event for the first time and has placed it on its official high school cheerleading calendar. Section VI began sanctioning events after the New York State Board of Regents first recognized cheerleading as a high school sport in April 2014.
