CELTICS INFO 2011-10 SEASON

The Leeds University Cheerleaders will have five different teams for the 2011-12 season:- the co-ed competition team, the all-girl competition team, the match team, the hip hop team and pom dance team.

The Competition team trains on Tuesdays 8-10pm at The Edge and Thursday 9-10:30pm in Leeds' very own cheer gym equipped with a full size competition floor! The Comp teams will train hard throughout the year and compete at various competitions ranging from uni comps and regional's to the UK nationals. Although no gymnastic experience is necessary it certainly helps as in competitions the team is marked on Stunts, Jumps, Dance, Motions and Tumbling. Comp team is great fun, a brilliant way to keep fit and very rewarding. We are very lucky to have great facilities and excellent coaches.

The Match team perform routines at American Football and Basketball games. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed and the practises are catered to suit all ability levels. You will learn and perform skills which include dance, jumps, motions, cheers and chants.

The Pom dance team compete in cheer competitions throughout the year, performing energetic dance routines with the use of poms. You do not need any experience to join the team, just a passion for dancing and performing!

You can join as many or as little of the teams as you like.

MEMBERSHIP, SOCIALS AND OTHER INFO

Within the Celtics you can be on as many teams as you want, although for comp and the dance teams you will have to pass the tryouts first. There is a once off membership fee for the year and we always put on a lot of socials (pretty much every week) which everyone is invited to. Wednesday nights are the usual sports teams nights out which is normally a big one, although some people often go out for a few quiet ones after the games on a Sunday.
