Overview

TEAM PLACEMENTS

When forming teams, we consider factors such as athlete skills, experience, and maturity. Team placement is primarily determined by birth year and skill level.

Rosters are subject to change at any point and for any reason under coaches discretion. Initial team announcements will be sent via email after the team reveal on May 29th.

COMPETITION SCHEDULE

The competition schedule varies by team. Most teams will attend competitions hosted both locally and nationally, with the opportunity to be invited to and to attend End-Of-Season Events (i.e., The Cheerleading Worlds, The Summit).

Competition schedules will be released after team placements.

TRAVEL EXPENSES

Travel expenses are not included in tuition. Athletes are required to book travel in accordance with any guidelines provided throughout the season.

Time Commitment

Participating in our All Star Cheer program is a 12-month commitment. We practice two weekdays all season. Our Worlds team will have multiple mandatory Sunday practices during the season. Additional practices and extended practices will be scheduled during important times of the season.

Athletes are expected to prioritize their participation in our program and fully commit to attending all scheduled practices.

Tryouts

Tryout sessions are divided by age. All previous balances and necessary tryout fees must be paid in order to participate. Private Tryouts are available upon request. Email pittsburgh@cheerathletics.com to schedule.

Each athlete will receive a number that will be used through the whole placement process. During INDIVIDUAL TRYOUTS each athlete will perform a jump sequence, running tumbling skills and standing tumbling skills. Flyers will be asked to demonstrate body positions on the floor . Please register and attend the session for your current age as of the date of placements. If you are not able to attend the placement for your age, you should still register for your proper age, but attend the lower age group or the scheduled makeup session.
