"In 2013 my dreams of forming an all-star cheerleading squad came true.  I'm proud to introduce the Anthracite Heat!"

~ James Paceley





All Star Cheerleading develops athletes who receive a foundation that helps them prepare to excel in life. Our athletes improve physical strength, coordination, and agility while becoming proud, confident team members who work together to reach their goals.

All-star cheerleading is defined as a team, or program, which practices in a concentrated environment for the sole purpose of competition and do not represent a school. 

Our all-star cheerleaders come together from different school districts throughout Schuylkill County to refine their skills and compete. We proudly represent Pottsville, St. Clair, North Schuylkill, Schuylkill Haven, Blue Mountain, Nativity, Tamaqua, Minersville school districts and many more!
