Competition Teams | The PCA: Pride Cheer Academy

Thank you for your interest in the PR!DE Cheer Academy Competition Program!

Founded in 2007 by owner Evan Sayres, PR!DE Cheer Academy has become a recognized leader in cheer and tumbling instruction across Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. With over 30 years of experience in gymnastics and cheerleading, Coach Evan built PR!DE on the foundation of excellence, discipline, and athlete development.

At PR!DE, we believe in building well-rounded, fundamentally sound athletes through structured lesson planning, individualized training, and a relentless commitment to progression. Our motto,

“Get !T… Got !T… Perfect !T…”

Represents more than just a mindset—it’s a proven method that helps our athletes grow to their fullest potential.

We are proud to be 5-Time CheerMax/Apex National Champions and the reigning 2025 Florida Finals Champions—accomplishments that reflect the hard work, talent, and dedication of our athletes and staff. Our competitive edge comes from our attention to detail, discipline, and the personal investment we put into each student.

The PR!DE staff is made up of experienced coaches who are passionate about helping athletes reach their goals both on and off the mat. We foster a positive, respectful, and driven team environment where every athlete is encouraged to push beyond limits and build lifelong values through sport.

Team workouts for our competitive program run throughout May-June. If you’re ready to be part of something special—or just want to learn more—we invite you to contact the academy with any questions or to get started.
