 | 2013-2014 Tryouts May 2nd - May 5th Are you up for the challenge? |
We know it may be hard to look past the great season that we are currently in, but it's just about that time of year to begin preparing for the 2013-14 all-star cheer season!!! Below is some important information regarding the upcoming
Heat Athletics all-star team tryouts. This information is also available in the form of a PDF by clicking here.
Every year we try and make the tryout process as low-stress as possible. Each athlete will work side-by-side with other athletes in a positive, inclusive environment under the supervision of Heat Athletics staff. Each athlete will be given the opportunity to demonstrate skills which they have learned from our staff and that they are familiar with. Athletes age 3-18 and of all abilities are recommended and encouraged to tryout.
