UKCA are pleased to announce the coaching arrangements for Team UK 2013 to compete at the Cheerleading World Championships in Thailand next year.

Applications were invited from all suitably qualified coaches in the UK, whether UKCA members or not. We received a number of high quality applications from coaches throughout the UK. The coaching team best suited to take charge of the Cheer Dance team are former Team UK athletes – Fayhe-Louise Mitchell and Georgina Burrows as Joint Head Coaches.

Auditions for athletes will be announced via the UKCA website in due course.

It has been decided that it is not practical to create a National Cheerleading team.  Club teams will be invited to represent the UK in all Cheerleading categories. They will be selected on the basis of performance at UKCA’s National Cheerleading Championships to be held in March 2013. If we have strong enough teams to compete we still intend to enter All Female & Coed Cheerleading and Stunt Group categories at Level 5/6.
