hi, i used to cheer for 3 years at my small k-8 private school, and i really liked it. it was small budget and a small team, no-tryout. when i switched to public for middle school, i wasn't that interested in cheer.
i quickly found out how complicated tryouts were, and i bailed on trying out...
Hello! I still have yet to hear from UF (the college of my dreams), but WHEN I get accepted (putting that energy out there), I really want to make their cheer team. I would need to learn a RO BHS series, Standing BHS and Tuck, and a RO BT. I have 0 tumbling skills and when it comes to tumbling...
Does anyone know what is needed for a non tumbling team? Last year I tried out at only one gum, where they mainly focused on toe touches. This year I am hoping to try out for both gums, where the other gym focuses on stunts. I am trying to work on both. Does anyone know what stunts are needed or...
Hi! SO I am a little conflicted about what I should this year. I am 20 years old, a Teaching Assistant, a coach, and a college sophomore. This year was my first year coaching and I went to NCA Camp with my girls and it was amazing. While we were there a few of them scanned the staff and asked me...

My youngest is 3 almost 4 and oldest is 6. Our gym said beginners were welcome and it's a large gym so there are ample teams to fit all levels. We just got done with tiny tryouts and team evals are this week. My oldest got put at the same time as my youngest. Everyone at her age had their...
My daughter has standing tumbling of a level 5 and flyer skills for level 5 but her running tumbling is not good. She has tuck alternates (but her knees go out outwards in handspring) and her layout still looks like a pike. She has her toe tuck in standing and standing alternates. Just my...

Backstory: Last year I tried out for my high school's cheer team. I was the only girl who had never done cheer before, and I was trying out for my junior year. Me and one other girl didn't make the team, so it had me pretty down. I can do high jumps and stuff just fine, but closest thing to...
My daughter tryout week is this week. Several of the girls have been hit with a bug that made them very nauseous and vomiting to the point of dehydration. Luckily it seems to last only 24 hours but also seems to be very contagious. The first day 2 girls had it, yesterday 4.
Unfortunately, our...

Is there anybody that you know of is trying out for UK? BTW, several UK cheerleading (including the Wildcat mascot) are graduating this year.
CP has tryouts for school cheer Monday. It’s a game day team. For clinics, the new kids have just worn assorted t-shirts and shorts. Should CP match the team colors? Bow or not? She’s excited about the team, but a little nervous since the tryout is focusing on cheers, jumps and dance over...
We have tryouts coming up for “summer spirit” (read: basically the cheer team but defined as a “advanced summer-long cheer clinic” until we’re legally allowed to hold offical tryouts in August).
Anyway, I wanted to do something a bit flashier rather than just an online posting of the teams...

Going into tryouts this year I will
More than likely have a varsity full of all returners, I again want to incorporate stunting but I’m not sure the best way to do so. Who does it and how?? Or could I just take the scores for each spot. Like I know I’ll have 7 stunt groups so the top 7 flyers...
Coach at a mid-sized high school here!
Going into my third year as head coach, and hoping to perfect how I run out tryout process.
How does everyone run theirs? Ideas that failed? That went smoothly?
Thanks!
Hi!
I am new to the forum and have decided to try out for my college cheer team. The college is a very small, rural community college which is rebranding (as in dropped the "community" from the college name, changed the school colors and added basketball and cheer last fall).
The cheer team...
