Frequently Asked Questions
We are new to this! What is Allstar cheer?

What is the difference between the Full Year, Half Year Novice, and Half Year Showteam?
The Half Year Showteam is a lower time and financial commitment team meant for beginners-intermediate that would like to learn the fundamentals of Allstar cheerleading. They will practice once a week. They will perform once at our showcase and two competitions. Our Half Year Novice teams are for our intermediate cheerleaders who are developing their tumbling and stunting skills, and who have some experience. They practice twice a week and attend one showcase and three competitions. Their season is from September-February. The Full Year Teams are a full year commitment. They practice twice a week and attend the showcase and five competitions.

How will you determine which team?
Although tumbling is an important component to tryouts, athletes will also be evaluated on the level of other skills. We will also evaluate teachability, listening skills, and history of performance. Many factors, from skills to age to team needs, go into team placements, but every placement is thoughtful with the expectation that each athlete will thrive in her placement.
