Buffalo Jill of The Week Caity

This week, we take a look at rookie dancer Caity as our Jill of The Week. This Rochester native was found dancing on Eileen's line next to Stefanie this season and actually caught our eyes at 1st cuts when she and her friend Riley came in matching outfits. While that's not exactly new as 7 pairs of vets did the same thing this year, it is notable that two aspiring rookies did it. Unfortunately, unlike the vets, Riley and Caity weren't able to reserve their numbers and ended up dancing separately which didn't hurt their chances as they both made the final squad. Riley left the squad early during the summer while Caity stuck it out and was one of only 2 rookies, along with Joya, on Eileen's vet-heavy line. Some Jills, once they leave the squad, aspire to leave the area. In fact, a pair of this year's rookie ambassadors have already made their plans for leaving. Thankfully, Caity won't be one of them. She places a high importance on her family and enjoys the winter sports like skiing she can get involved with here.

Buffalo Pro Cheer Photos of The Week!

Continuing our look at the beautiful rookies who will be gracing the sidelines at Ralph Wilson Stadium this fall, we have a photo from the recent Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio.
In a photo taken midway through the 4th quarter, we have dancers Caity and Joya. I apologize because I can't give you much insight into these two young ladies as of yet but you'll be able to see them performing on Eileen's line starting Saturday night at the Kid's Day preseason game. Just a reminder, Lot C is the place to be from 3:30-6:30 as the Jills Ambassador Squad will be there (until about 6pm, anyway) for the Kid's Day festivities. There's also a special being filmed in that lot for the Food Network on tailgating featuring a team from Chicago and, representing Buffalo, the famed Pinto Ron.

With the Jr Jills joining the Buffalo Jills on the field this weekend, we have a photo from our other squad and their Jr squad, the Jr Bandettes at the Bandits-Titans game earlier this year. Here we see Alexis looking extra excited to get on the floor while the Bandettes and Jr Bandettes get set for their pregame performance.

The Jr Jill and Jr Bandette programs that the squads run do a great service for Buffalo's young women by giving those who are interested in dancing or cheerleading a head start by learning from the pros. Neither squad has cuts so everyone gets a chance to learn and the Jills and Bandettes each try to give the younger generation as much personal attention as possible so that everyone learns.
