ABOUT THE CHEERLEADERS
Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Cheerleading is the official cheer squad under Louisiana Athletics. Our team is a part of the Spirit Program which consists of Ragin' Cajuns Cheerleading and Ragin' Jazz. Serving as a fundamental part of Louisiana Athletics, the team promotes Ragin' Cajuns Spirit at a multitude of athletic events including Football, Men’s and Women’s Basketball, Baseball and Volleyball. In addition, the team plays an integral role in the University Community by performing at pep rallies, parades, and other University-related events throughout Acadiana. The Cheerleaders serve as spirited University ambassadors through participation in community service, public appearances and charitable events.

Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Cheerleading competes on the national level at the UCA Collegiate National Championship in Orlando, FL. In 2024 the team finished 5th in the nation in the DIA Spirit Program Game Day division.

The team has access to the following student-athlete resources:
  • Strength & Conditioning Facilities and Coach
  • Nutritionist
  • Athletic Training Facilities and Trainers
  • Priority Scheduling
  • Student-Athlete Academic Center
  • Access to Fuel Zone (healthy snacks for pre and post workout)

Being a member of the cheerleading squad requires an intense commitment, around 20 hours per week, and runs from May of current year to May of following year.
