Since the inception a year ago, the FUSION Athletic Programs have grown to form an All-Star Cheerleading team and Track and Field program. Beyond that of the competition floor, FUSION athletes come together and get involved in many local community events that support and bring awareness to our mission.

Track and Field programs are based on three main components – running, jumping and throwing – requiring the development of muscular strength, balance and coordination. The Track and Field Program provides countless opportunities for athletes to learn how to be self-disciplined, increase their span, focus and motivation while also benefiting them with the physical and emotional aspects of a team sport.
