Bring Your Spirit to Point Park!

Join our Cheer or Dance Team Programs and become part of a supportive, high-energy community.

Point Park University's Cheer and Dance Teams are university-sponsored club sports that bring excitement to campus. Our teams perform at select varsity basketball games and at a variety of campus and community events.

Scholarships are available for all team members.

Important note:

Auditions for Point Park University's Dance Team and Point Park University's Conservatory of Performing Arts School of Dance are separate. The Spirit Programs teams are extracurricular, but many Conservatory students participate as well.
