A South Side cheer team finished a big competition with more than a national title. It's a program that's proving in order to win, you need a strong base.
Chicago's KAOS Girls Cheer Team won three national titles back in May. At their home base in Englewood, the girls, ages 4 to 18, are learning the right steps for the future.
Coach Tolar co-founded the KAOS Bulldogs 14 years ago. KAOS stands for Keeping Adolescents Off the Streets. Tolar teaches the girls not only the right moves on the stage, but also in life, with character building, mentorship, and academic support. "You can learn about leadership, and you can also make new friends. That's fun," said 10-year-old Amari Moore, who is from Englewood.
