The Classes
There are a different variety of classes available with the
Stafford Jets. Some classes are restricted by age, but non are restricted
by ability. Please see the following pages for what we offer.
The class environment will be fun and friendly, but with an
emphasis on safe practice. The classes are a great opportunity to make
new friends, whilst learning new and exciting skills. Cheerleading is a
fantastic way to increase overall body strength and endurance. It doesn't
matter what shape, age, sex, size or background someone comes from,
cheerleading is suitable for all. At the end of the terms, members will be
putting on a performance and there will be presentations. Throughout
the course, there will be exciting opportunities to perform and attend
local events. SJC are also a competitive team, taking part in National
Competions.

The Tomcats session is available for 4-7 year olds. (3 year olds are

The classes consist of dance, gymnastics and stunts which are taught on
a mainly level 1 basis. They learn routines which are then performed at a
variety of events. To date, The SJC Tomcats have performed at a variety
of event across the county and have also competed in a National
Competition!
There are 18 places available only in the Mini's team, in order for
the coaches to be able to give enough attention and time to the
members. The members learn all their new skills in a safe and fun

The Tomcats may be the littlest members of the Jets, but they are
definitely the loudest!

Practice Wear
Please ensure that yourself or your child is wearing appropriate exercise
clothing. Crew neck t-shirts are perfect. Tracksuit bottoms or shorts are
ideal. The kind of clothes your child wears for PE are suitable. For the
young adults, gym wear is fine. Absolutely NO jewellery is permitted or
watches. For safety reasons, hair should be either tied up in a pony or
away from the face. Please can you ensure that trainers are worn, I will
not teach anyone who is wearing plimsolls or any other inappropriate
footwear. If you can fold the shoe in half then it is not suitable (BCA
guidelines) As cheerleading is a very physical, high impact sport there is
a risk of injury, so by wearing appropriate clothing and footwear greatly
minimises this risk.

Mini/Junior/Senior Cheer £3
