• All participants will be given a try-out number at random. As a group the participants will perform the 3 cheers, and the dance that they learned at clinics in front of our judge/judges. They will then be dismissed and come back in as groups of 2 or 3. At this time the participants will perform the 3 cheers and dance together. Then one at a time you will be asked to perform a jump sequence and asked to do a specialty if you have one. This can include tumbling (running or standing) leaps, other jumps etc. This is something special that you have! This is your time to shine!
• If need be, our judge(s) may ask to see you try-out again or with a different group of girls!
• You are not dismissed from tryouts until coaches tell you that you are allowed to leave!
