Two popular football players at the fictional Gerald R. Ford High School, Nick Brady and Shawn Colfax, find themselves at a crossroads when they hatch a plan that starts as a joke but grows into something bigger. After slipping away from football camp, they overhear talk of a cheer camp with a surprisingly large population of three hundred cheerleaders, and they decide to infiltrate the camp with a simple goal: to meet girls. What begins as a prank quickly opens their eyes to a world they hadn’t considered, where the energy of the crowd, the rhythm of the routines, and the camaraderie of the squad begin to feel like a new kind of pull.
