Competitive Cheerleading

At Prestige Athletics, we offer multiple levels of  competitive cheerleading.  Here is a short breakdown of each of the classes we offer. 

Novice Cheerleading

Novice Cheerleading is an amazing program that has been developed to introduce our new athletes to the incredible world of competitive Cheerleading!  They will focus on the fundamentals of Cheerleading and learning about teamwork and accountability.  These athletes, aged 3-12, will practice once a week, and will perform in 3 mandatory events in the Edmonton area, and our local showcase(s).  No overnight or out of province travel required.  Season runs from September to April.

Prep Cheerleading 

The Prep Program is the stepping stone between Novice and Elite. It is built for those with previous experience on a Novice team, or have previous dance/gymnastics experience, but are not quite ready for the commitment of an Elite Cheer team.  All Prep teams require all athletes to participate in Mandatory Team Placements (held in May).  These athletes, aged 5-16, will practice twice a week, and will perform in 4-5 mandatory events in the Alberta, and our local showcase(s).  Some overnight travel required.  Season runs in June then August to April.

All Star Cheerleading

All Star Cheerleading is the ultimate competitive cheer experience!  These athletes, aged 6-18, practice 2-3 times per week and overnight and out-of-province travel will be required for some events.  Previous tumbling or cheer experience is an asset, and strongly recommended.  Choreography is advanced and will require some work done at home to stay on track.  All Star Elite teams require all athletes to participate in Mandatory Team Placements (held in May), as well as Choreography Camp (July 2026).  These athletes will participate in 6-7 mandatory events, and our local showcase(s).  Overnight and out of province travel is required.  Season runs from June-April.   

*NEW*  Pom Team

Pom is an energetic and dynamic style of dance that places emphasis on precise and synchronized arm movements, formations, jumps, and skills. Teams practice once per week, and will perform at 4 events in the Edmonton/Red Deer/Calgary area, and our local showcase.  Overnight travel may be required at some events.
