What to Expect for Cheer:

Everyone will get a chance to stretch and warm up. PT Coaches will teach a short motion-sequence/dance and go over the "required" jumps to be performed during evaluation. After warming up tumbling, the cheerleaders trying out will get to watch a "mock tryout" performed by PT coaches. Tryouts will then proceed in small groups by number.

Thanks for your interest in Prime Tyme All-Stars! We are so excited to have you as part of our PT family for the 2011-2012 season! We have cheer teams for all ages and skill levels, as well as hip hop dance teams! And, everyone makes a team!

We will evaluate each athlete and place each individual on the team that we feel is the best fit for the athlete, the team, and the program as a whole. Many different things will be considered, including: age, size, maturity, experience, dedication to the program, commitment level, family support, current ability, and overall athleticism. Specific cheer skills will also be evaluated, including: motions and dance technique, ability to learn and retain choreography, jumps, stunting ability, facial expressions, body control, flexibility, and tumbling.

We hope to max out every area of the score sheet with each team. Tumbling is an important part of the score sheet with most athletes on each team needing to be able to perform the maximum skills per level, but keep in mind that it is not the only factor. Specific Tumbling Skills we will ask to see include:

Performance Team: front or back roll; cartwheel; roundoff; bridge; backbend; front or back walkover, etc.
