Four McCallum cheer captains are guiding the 2026-27 team through a season of performances, new members and a new coach. They’re sharing leadership duties—from planning practices and pep rallies to teaching cheers and choreographing routines—while building toward the team’s January UIL competition.

By the Numbers
  • 4 captains lead the team.
  • 3 captains are seniors; 1 is a junior.
  • The team will compete at UIL for the 3rd time in January.
Yes, But

The captains say they work well together and have a strong team bond, but inconsistent attendance makes it harder to learn routines and keep formations on track. Adjusting to a new coach and bringing new members up to speed also add to the workload.

What's Next

The team will continue preparing for its January competition in Fort Worth. The captains hope to deliver a strong routine and improve on the team’s past placements.

Bottom Line

The captains’ shared leadership is helping the team navigate change—but consistent attendance will be key to turning months of practice into a polished competition performance.
