Duxbury Youth Cheer
Duxbury Cheer is a competitive and fun program. We support the Duxbury Youth Football teams and also participate in cheer competitions. Attendance to all days of Choreography and to all the competitions is mandatory to be placed on a competition team. Cheerleading is a team sport and every athlete is essential for us to succeed.
