University of West Georgia Cheerleading Program; continued reputation of excellence and global recognition as a dynasty with 35 national championships for All-Girl and Coed squads from 2001-2025; commend

Summary

House Resolution 219 is a congratulatory resolution recognizing the University of West Georgia Cheerleading Program for its long record of competitive success and its reputation as a national powerhouse. The resolution highlights the program’s 35 national championships from 2001 through 2025, including recent Division I titles won by the Small Coed, Large Coed, All-Girl, and All-Girl Group Stunt squads at the Universal Cheerleaders Association National College Championship in Orlando, Florida. The resolution also names the coaches and members of the 2024-2025 squads and praises the student-athletes for excellence in academics, athletics, and service to the university and community. It concludes by formally commending the program and directing the House Clerk to provide a copy of the resolution to the University of West Georgia Cheerleading Program.

Impact

HR 219 does not change state law, create new programs, or appropriate funds. Its effect is purely ceremonial: it places the Georgia House of Representatives on record honoring the University of West Georgia Cheerleading Program and its coaches and athletes, and it authorizes distribution of the resolution to the program. No statutes are amended or affected, and no legal obligations are imposed on any person or entity.

Sentiment

The sentiment around the resolution is strongly positive and celebratory. The bill text itself is entirely laudatory, and the available context shows no committee debate, opposition, or recorded votes. The measure appears to have been introduced as a recognition of athletic achievement and institutional pride rather than as a contested policy proposal.

Contention

There is no notable policy contention in the available record. Because the resolution is honorary and nonbinding, there are no apparent disagreements over statutory changes, funding, or regulatory effects. Any discussion would likely have centered only on the appropriateness of the commendation and the specific achievements of the cheerleading program, but no opposing views or amendments are provided.
