If interest warrants, we may add a 3rd team. This will be a two day, all-inclusive try-out. All spots are open. Existing team member must re-tryout. Athletes will be taught a side line cheer, a short dance, jumps & stunts. Try-out will include the side line cheer, dance, tumbling, stunts and jumps. Try-outs will be in an open gym format. Teacher/coach evaluations will be considered at try –outs. All potential cheerleaders will have an individual photo taken upon registration. This will be attached to their try-out application and evaluations and is used to assist the coaching staff with visual recognition during the selection process.

Standing back handsprings and Round-off back handsprings are highly recommended. Students can help their position with front and back walkovers, ariels, and back extension rolls Tumbling is mandatory on Varsity. A standing back handspring is the minimum expected skill level. Students looking to put themselves in a better position for Varsity should look to show the following skills: Back handspring back tuck (running and standing), Cartwheel back tuck, standing tuck, layouts, Fulls All tumbling skills must be executed on a cheer mat, not a spring floor. STUNTING Girls looking to fly at the JV level should be working towards solid single leg skills. Single leg skills are not necessary to try out, however it is what you should be working towards. Girls looking to fly at the varsity level should be prepared to execute an overstretch (bow and arrow), scale and arabesque. Girls should also be prepared to Full-up or tic-tock up. Multi-skill baskets are encouraged. Girls/Guys looking to base or back at the varsity level should be prepared to execute elite level basing skills…full-ups, single base skills, and multiple stunt reloads, tic tocks. JUMPS Everyone should be prepared to execute a single toe-touch, a double toe touch, a double 9, a pike and a front hurdler. Those looking to reach the varsity level should be working for inverted toe-touches, double 9’s and pikes that are level to the ground, and hurdlers that are at a 45 degree angle. Jump/tumble combinations are encouraged at the varsity level. These are some of the skills that we will be looking at as we access each candidate. Each individual is unique and will bring a unique set of skills with them. One skill does not make or break a candidate. This is intended as a guide to help you better prepare for try-outs.
