2000 SFL San Antonio Matadors - Matadors Cheerleaders
In 2000 the San Antonio Roses still did not officially exist but the year was filled with major changes for the squad. They started the year as 2000 Sharpshooter Cheerleaders for the UPFL Stampede and after one game became the 2000 Matadors Cheerleaders in April for the upcoming SFL San Antonio Matadors.
The Spring Football League was a professional league founded by several ex-NFL players such as Eric Dickerson, Drew Pearson, Bo Jackson and Tony Dorsett. They planned a four game mini-season in 2000 to test cities and springtime football as a product. The Matadors Cheerleaders helped promote the San Antonio Matadors and performed at their only game at Alamo Stadium in May 6th, 2000. The Matadors and Houston Marshals were named co-SFL Champions.
In November 2000 the NAFL San Antonio Thunder approached Cynthia Trinidad to form a squad for their 2001 season. Potential future squad members helped promote the team until their offical audition in 2001.
