Tryout Structure
Tryouts will consist of the following elements which we will be assessing: Flexibility, Jumps, Dance, Stunting and Fitness. Additional flexibility assessment will be required for members wanting to tryout as a flyer.
Flexibility and Jumps Assessment will consist of pre-jumps stretches and then testing prospective jumps sections for our routine.
A dance will be provided via social media to learn prior to tryouts. This will not be taught during the session and you will be assessed in small groups.
Stunting will be assessed in one large group where we will regularly swap stunt groups while working progressional level 3 skills. All people aiming to tryout should have experience in cheerleading and be comfortable with skills such as libs, baskets and extension height skills.
The tryout will conclude with a short fitness test to ensure members can handle the training required of this higher level team. This will consist of a circuit of cardio and bodyweight fitness skills.

-
We are trialling a shorter competitive block for this team in the 24/25 season. The team will be set in October and will train until the end of March with 3 competitions across the beginning of 2025. Due to this shorter season we expect excellent attendance from all members.

We will compete at 3 competitions in our 6 month season. These are planned to be REVOLUTION Rebellion in Blackpool on 25th/26th January, FUTURE CHEER Heart of England in Manchester on 15th/16th February and ICC British Open in Nottingham on 29th/30th March. This will be in addition to a showcase event that we will be organising around December or January.

We have competed with approximately 12-15 members over the past few years but we are hoping to increase this number as well as add a reserve stunt group to allow more members the opportunity to train at this higher level.
