In recent years the teams have seen an increase in participation and interest. Ryan Wagner, a senior on the team, who has been playing hockey since he was six years old, said, “I feel like the number of boys and girls [from South] has increased over the years and it just keeps growing.”](https://www.shsoutherner.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/khayaalhockeyteamgrowth.jpg)

Not only do they have a new coach Gabby Stickney but they have also had an increase in cheerleaders on their team due to better publicity and funding. “[The cheerleading squad is more popular this year] because we were able to promote [the team] more. I mean having cheerleading in the winter helped to have people see that we wanted to continue cheerleading and now people have been seeing them at soccer and football games so we have more people inquiring about the winter tryouts. I think once people see it they know it’s there,” said Stickney.](https://www.shsoutherner.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/cheer-900x600.jpg)
