Jeff Webb, a cheerleading pioneer, dubbed the father of modern cheerleading and Charlie Kirk's mentor and friend, has sadly passed away on Thursday, 19 March, at age 76 after a freak pickleball accident.
Webb is a conservative author who is widely credited with transforming competitive cheerleading into a global industry and was the founder of Varsity Spirit and one of the most influential figures in the history of the sport of cheerleading and dance.
