The best recruiting website is the one that actually gets you in front of coaches. Profile sites wait for coaches to find you. AthleticScholar emails 1,385 college cheerleading coaches for you from your own Gmail and follows up automatically, for $30/month after a 7-day free trial.

How do I find a college cheerleading coach's email?
Coaches' emails are usually listed in each school's athletics staff directory. AthleticScholar has verified emails for 1,385 college cheerleading coaches, so you can message them without looking each one up.
When should I start emailing college cheerleading coaches?
Many recruits start in their freshman or sophomore year of high school. You can email a coach at any age, though NCAA rules limit when Division I and Division II coaches can reply, so starting early puts you on their list before those dates.
What GPA do you need to play college cheerleading?
To compete in NCAA Division I you need at least a 2.3 GPA in 16 core courses, and Division II requires at least a 2.2. Division III, NAIA and junior college programs set their own academic standards, so check with each school.

Recruiting services often charge $1,000 or more for a package. AthleticScholar is $30/month after a 7-day free trial, with no contract, and you choose every program you contact.
Do Division III cheerleading programs offer scholarships?
No. Division III schools don't offer athletic scholarships, but most athletes there receive academic or need-based aid. Division I, Division II, NAIA and junior college programs can offer athletic scholarships.
