Tatum Byrd '26 Recruiting Profile

Hello, my name is Tatum Byrd and I would love to compete at the collegiate level in cheerleading. I have done competitive all-star cheer since I was 8 years old, and I am currently on the competitive UIL game-day squad for my high school. I plan to continue competitive all-star in the future.

Cheerleading has been a significant part of my life, teaching me the values of dedication, teamwork, and perseverance. Over the years, I have honed my skills in stunting, tumbling, and choreography, and I am always eager to learn and improve. My experience on the UIL game-day squad has allowed me to perform under pressure and support my team with enthusiasm and spirit.

In addition to my cheerleading commitments, I maintain a strong academic record and participate in various school activities such as powerlifting, track and field, FFA, theatre, and I am a member of my school student council. Balancing cheerleading and academics has taught me excellent time management skills and the importance of hard work.

Cheerleading is more than just a sport to me; it’s a passion that has shaped who I am today. It has provided me with a sense of community and belonging, and I aspire to bring that same energy and dedication to your collegiate team. My goal is to continue to grow as an athlete and a leader, contributing positively to the team’s success and spirit.

I am excited about the opportunity to bring my passion and skills to a collegiate cheerleading team. I am confident that my experience and dedication will make a positive contribution to your program. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of joining your team and continuing my cheerleading journey at the collegiate level.
