FAQ

Cheer Haven All-Stars offers a unique opportunity for athletes to practice and gain new skills for the upcoming season. Unlike other all-star gyms, our schedule allows for a transition period between one season to the next. During this time, we plan tumbling instruction sessions based on age and skill sets. Athletes have the chance to “level up” by practicing drills led by our Haven Staff. Training begins the week of April 29th.

Our annual TEAM PLACEMENTS will be announced (in person) on Thursday, May 30th. This event is the result of months of planning and preparation. Thus, the rosters listed will be FINAL.

We welcome new athletes interested in becoming an All-Star to join our Summer Training for ages 4-11 at Cheer Haven. These groups will eventually have the opportunity to become Novice Teams and members will compete at Local Competitions. A parent meeting will be scheduled in June for specific details. Email CheerHavenAllStars@gmail.com if you are interested!

Please wear ALL black to all Practices beginning in June. Athletes can wear training appropriate clothing to Season 7 Training in April-May 2024. Athletes will be asked to wear BLACK to tryouts. A form-fitting black tank top or athletic sports bra would be ideal - with black shorts or capris. Please wear hair up and tight and wear white cheer shoes. Practice wear will be available for sizing (mandatory purchase) after teams are formed. ​

Parents are not permitted to enter the training area during allstar practices. For safety purposes and in line with Washington Crown Center policies, please do not leave children unattended at the mall. We also ask that children exit the gym upon practice ending - they are not permitted to "play" on the equipment before or after any Cheer Haven training. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. Safety is the number one priority. During team practices, parents will be invited to view our team progress in our PARENT LOUNGE. Coaches will also invite parents to watch routine progress during the last 5 minutes of each practice.
