ABOUT

Dawan Carter

Founder & Owner

I have been In the cheerleading industry on every side for the last decade. I remembered how scary the college cheerleading recruiting process was for me because every school is doing it different, and the only way to know you have done it wrong is when it is too late. After working with three different Division 1 National Championship Universities in their recruiting processes, I decided to start giving the athletes I coached, whether through private lessons or team coaching, a road map for how to get recruited so they could be successful. After experiencing a lot of success and hearing more and more sad stories of athletes who have the talent not being able to cheer in college because they didn’t know how to “play the game,” I decided to launch a company where we would help anyone and everyone who was willing to sign up. and then BOOM! CheerForward was born. Our first year alone, we sent 14 athletes off to college and have had continued success ever since. We work with athletes of all different positions and skill levels, and we give them the best chance to continue their career on the collegiate level. You're next!

OUR SUCCESS

Since its founding, CheerForward has helped our athletes into earning scholarships at top tier programs around the country including multiple Power 5 Programs and 12 National Championship Programs! The dedication of our athletes to our process has proven to make the dream of cheering in college a reality. Here are some of the schools our athletes now call home.
