Sessions

Pre-Team Cheerleading

At Steel City, our Pre-Team Cheerleading program is the perfect introduction to cheerleading! Designed for athletes to learn the fundamentals, this program provides a supportive environment where athletes can develop their skills and build confidence.

​​​​

   Programme details:

  • Commitment: Athletes are required to attend four sessions to gain essential skills and decide if they want to move onto a competitive team.

  • Development: Our Pre-Team focuses on teaching basic cheer techniques, including jumps, stunts and tumbling.

  • No Pressure: If athletes decide that competition isn’t for them, they can choose to remain in the Pre-Team program, allowing them to continue working on their skills without the stress of competition.

Who runs sessions?

Our passionate and nurturing staff hold extensive coaching qualifications, enhanced DBS clearance and are skilled in catering to the strengths and needs of every individual, including children with additional needs.

​

Location
All sessions are held at our specialist gym:
The Forge, 1 Wallace Road, Sheffield S3 9SR
       •        Free parking is available on-site and on nearby streets.
       •        Accessible bathroom facilities are on site.
Please use the pedestrian gate on Wallace Road to enter the gym. The gate from the car park leads to our outdoor area and rear fire exit only. Ring the doorbell at the pedestrian gate on Wallace Road, and staff will welcome you in. For subsequent sessions, you can request the gate access code.

What to Wear
       •        Comfortable clothing suitable for movement and exercise
       •        Clean indoor shoes with smooth soles (important for stunting)
       •        Long hair tied back, and all jewellery removed for safety
We kindly ask adults to remove outdoor shoes when stepping on matted areas to keep our gym clean and safe.

Can Parents/Carers Watch?


We welcome parents/carers to stay during their child’s first session if needed. However, due to our small spectator area, we encourage alternatives such as running errands or relaxing nearby. Spectators are asked to:
       •        Minimise belongings brought into the gym
       •        Observe quietly to avoid distractions
       •        Keep pathways to the toilet and fire exit clear
Nearby supermarkets like Tesco Extra (Saville Street), Tesco (Infirmary Road), and Aldi (Flora Street) are convenient options for making the most of your time.

​

Please let us know if you have any further questions – we are happy to help.
