The Altamonte Sparklers are a group of more
than 60 male and female cheerleaders with special
needs who have been training and competing since
2005. Together the group has attended numerous
community events and cheerleading competitions.
They are run by the support of the City of
Altamonte Springs, volunteer coaches, and generous
donors. The Altamonte Sparklers are more than just
a cheerleading squad; they are a group of
inspirational athletes who have proven that
anything is possible- if given the
chance!
