'Prep' Cheerleading

Our competitive program is referred to as 'prep' cheerleading. Practice sessions will be once per week (1.5 hour class) and will include 3 exciting competitions and a year end showcase. At competitions, the athlete will get the opportunity to perform for a crowd and panel of judges in their beautiful cheer uniform. Basic skills will be taught each week and advancement in skills will always be encouraged so the athlete can reach their fullest potential. Teamwork will develop as individual skills combine to create an energetic cheerleading routine.

'Tiny' Cheerleading

Athletes ages 3-5 make up our Tiny program. We offer both recreational classes, as well as our competitive programs for this age group. This age group attends one competition practices in a special performance outfit. At practices, the athletes focus on learning dance, cheers, jumps, stunts and beginner tumbling skills. Our practices focus on teamwork, interactive play, skill building, and choreography introduction. It is a fun, safe space to fall in love with a sport while exerting tons of energy!

'Rec' Cheerleading

The rec program is a low-commitment team that also practices once per week (1 hour class). This team does not attend competition. Since there is no uniform, clothing package, or competition fees, the price is more affordable. Since this program doesn't require preparing a performance routine, we are able to help athletes focus on learning new skills, setting and achieving goals, and all while having fun and bonding with their teammates.

This program is subject to change based on enrollment.

'Open'/Senior Cheerleading

Our Open Team, "Eclipse", practices once per week. This program is offered to athletes ages 13 & up. This team is a fun atmosphere where we focus on new stunts and routine building. We provide a welcoming environment where athletes bond over their passion for cheerleading, while working together to learn and perform an exciting routine. We attend 3 competitions with this competitive team.

Zero Gravity Tumbling

Cheer United offers an exciting Tumbling/Skills Class. This extra course is for athletes who would like to progress their skills in the sport (with particular attention paid to tumbling). Our tumbling mats and unique equipment allow for a variety of drills to be practiced for tumbling progression. Depending on athlete experience, skills that will be practiced include front rolls, cartwheels, back walkovers, handsprings, and tucks. Athletes are encouraged to progress their skills at a safe but swift pace.

"My daughter was new to Welland and new to Centennial Secondary School when she joined the cheer team. Along with these coaches she was immediately supported by a group of girls who embraced her and made her part of their team. Cheer is a beautifully choreographed team sport where every member plays a vital role. Thank you Brittany and Nikki."
