​

Age Grids:

 

Royals follow the IASF/SportCheerEngland guidelines on age groups and skill levels. We will continue to adhere to these guidelines to ensure the best experience for all athletes. Age for the season is determined by the athlete’s age AS OF 31st AUGUST 2023. (E.g If an athlete is 14 as of 31 August 2023, but turns 15 on 1 September 2023, their age for the season is still 14 and they’re eligible for Junior age category).

 

All teams are open to all genders.

 

Training Schedule:

• Training days and schedule will be released following tryouts and team placements

• You may also be invited to or request to cross over and be on two cheer teams.

Prep Vs AllStar Division

 

What's the difference between a Prep team and a AllStar team? Well, in practice there isn't a lot at Royals. All teams have the same access to experienced coaches and train at our state of the art facility in Cobham. Prep division is designed for athletes who have a little experience with cheer, in the first few seasons of their cheer career or are beginners. 

At tryouts we have different entry criteria for each level - see below for this criteria.

​

Prep Level 1 Skill Requirements:

​

⭐️ Stunts: Beginners welcome, all stunts taught from the ground up

​⭐️ Required Tumbles: No previous experience required.

​⭐️ Permitted Tumbles: Forward & Backward roll, handstand, cartwheel, round-off, walkovers.

We also look for athletes who are eager to learn and are team players!
