PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Six members of the elite Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleading squad are heading down to Hollywood Beach, Florida, for "Beauties on the Beach" - an NFL-sponsored cheerleader challenge taking place Saturday, February 3, at 2 p.m. They will be part of the NFL Super Bowl pre-game events, attracting one of the largest national and international media audiences in the world.

The contest is part of "Super Saturday in the Sand," a fun-filled family day featuring celebrity flag football and a variety of NFL-organized games and activities.

The Eagles cheerleaders selected, Valerie, Tara, Jennifer, Stephanie, Kjersti, and Tiffany, will compete against cheerleaders from the Houston Texans, Washington Redskins, New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, and Jacksonville Jaguars in the two-hour challenge.

The event, hosted by the Super Bowl XLI host committee, will feature beach volleyball, flag football, kayaking, tug of war and a dance competition. The winner will be named the "Beauties on the Beach" Champion.

"We are thrilled to be a part of Super Bowl weekend," said Director of the Eagles Cheerleaders Barbara Zaun, who will also attend. "We are honored that the NFL continues to recognize our talented squad."

In December, 12 Eagles cheerleaders were chosen to represent the National Football League as part of a seven-week promotional tour of the United Kingdom. Invited by the League's UK office, the women spent two days performing at venues in Liverpool and Bath to promote the NFL in Europe.

The cheerleaders will also be appearing at several VIP events throughout Super Bowl weekend, including a swimsuit fashion show in South Beach with Cheerleader Tara to be aired on CBS, Friday, February 2.
