On the Olympic front the ICU has met with officials concerning the inclusion of cheer in future Olympic games. This is a long process, but one that both the ICU and USA Cheer are vigorously pursuing. As of today we have not been approved to be an exhibition sport in the 2012 or 2016 Olympic games. However, with over 65 member countries now in the ICU and more adding each week, our case to become an Olympic sport only becomes more and more compelling. In the meantime USA Cheer will continue to support the ICU in their efforts to expand our great sport world wide.
