  • Up Close and Behind The Scenes at the First Pro Cheer League Match
    Jan 23 2026

    In this episode of the Cheer Mom Podcast, Kristen heads to Indianapolis for the very first Pro Cheer League match and gives a play-by-play that’s part recap, part cultural moment. From unexpected games and skill evaluations to the very real realization that cheer might be entering its “professional era,” the event unfolds in real time. Along the way, Kristen chats with athletes, parents, and the people shaping the future of the sport—including Commissioner John Newby and cheer icons Victor and Kristen Rosario—about what the PCL could mean for cheer as a whole. The verdict? The crowd is into it, the potential is big, and while there’s room to tweak a few things, the energy feels like the start of something worth paying attention to.
