For the first time in more than a decade the LHSAA will hold Cheer and Dance team state championships.  Cheer and Dance will remain a non-sanctioned activity, which means they will not operate under the same eligibility requirements and competition guidelines that sanctioned sports must follow. The championships will take place November 30th and December 1st at the Lake Charles Event Center.
