Powder Puff is an annual game held that allows junior and senior girls to show off their football skills by playing against each other- Juniors play against Seniors.

Each team has seven players and a flag on each side that the other team is trying to acquire. Players can get a down if they get the flag pulled off their side. It follows the main rules of football, but no contact to avoid injuries.
As for the cheer portion, the participants cheer at the sidelines of the game, just like a regular football game.
