How are the teams configured?

 

Teams consist of athletes performing fast paced, exciting, and professionally choreographed 2½ minute routines set to music.

 

Teams are set up by skill level and then age group.  For a general rule of thumb:

 

• Mini Level teams consist of ages 7-9 years old.  2014-17 birth year.

• Youth Level teams consist of ages 8-12 years old.  2011-16 birth year.

• Junior Level teams consist of members 9-15 years old.  2008-15 birth year.

• Senior Level teams consist of ages 12-18 years old.  6/1/2003-2009 birth year.

• Senior Worlds Division teams consist of ages 13-19 years old.  6/1/2004-11 birth year.

 

Teams compete at 6 difficulty levels ranging from level 1 for beginners, up to level 6 for athletes with advanced elite skills. Our training goal is to help kids progress through all 6 levels in a save and confident manner.  It is normal and recommended for athletes to do more than one year on a level to be successful and well rounded.
