Frequently Asked Questions 🤔

I can’t make tryouts as we’re on holiday, what can I do?

 

We’ll be sending out video tryout info during June. Please email us to request that info.

 

Will you be having Non-Tumble again next season?

 

We’ll definitely be having a non-tumble team again for 2024-2025, maybe even two. We’re also planning to push into level 4 or 5 non-tumble after the success of Nobility this season.

 

How does it work with the age groups?

 

The cheer governing body has made changes for next season.

Prep team age groups will remain the same.
‘Allstar’ age groups will change from mini, youth, junior etc to Under 8, Under 12 etc.
Don’t worry too much though, just sign up to the right age tryout for you (using the birth years in the tryout description) and then we’ll guide you from there.

Included in July fees for current members. £7 for new members, must be paid in advance.
