Miami Dolphins NFL Cheerleader Girls

The group's inaugural season was in 1978, but the cheerleading squad was around since the team's inception since 1966. The original squad was known as the Dolphins Dolls, consisting in 125 girls ranging from 8 to 18 years of age. The group performed in the Miami Orange Bowl until 1977. The professional group came around in 1978 under owner Joe Robbie, consisting of 30 ladies. The group was known as the Starbrites under a sponsorship with Starbrite Car Polish until 1983, when the sponsorship ended. The Dolphins made a deal with Burger King to hold a "Name the Cheerleaders" contest, and the Miami Dolphins Cheerleaders were ultimately selected. In 1990, founder June Taylor retired and was replaced by Kathy Morton Shashaty, who was a Dolphins cheerleader from 1981-1985. In the late 1990s, the purchase of the Fins by Wayne Huizenga brought change to the franchise, with Super Bowl winning coach Jimmy Johnson coming to the team, Joe Robbie Stadium became Pro Player Stadium, and Dorie Grogan, a former Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader was brought in to improve the MDC's image.
