Below are the tumbling requirements for rising 7th through 12th grade athletes who wish to tryout for competitive cheer
**If you are a rising
7th or 8th grade
middle school student
for the 2018-19 school year, you may also tryout for
SV competitive cheer
if you meet the following requirements:
1. The athlete is zoned for Spring Valley High School.
(There is an exception for students of employees of Richland School District 2)
​
2. The athlete has made their middle school cheer team. Rising 7th graders will have to be evaluated after the end of the current school year.
​
3. The athlete meets the minimum tryout requirements for either the JV or Varsity cheer teams (see above).
​
4. The athlete's middle school coach is aware/understands the obligations of the athlete for high school competitive cheer.
​
5. The athlete meets all the Spring Valley High School, Richland 2 School District and South Carolina High School League athlete/athletic requirements.
Varsity Cheer Tryout Requirements :
The minimum tumbling requirement is standing back handspring AND a round off back handspring to be eligible to tryout for Varsity cheer.
A standing tuck and round off back tuck are highly recommended.
​
**Please note that if you are a rising Senior and do not meet the tumbling requirements for Varsity, you will not be able to tryout for cheer as Seniors are only eligible for the Varsity Cheer Team.**
​
JV Cheer Tryout Requirements :
JV cheer is a great place to gain experience and skills. While there is no minimum requirement for JV, we highly recommend athletes trying out have a standing back handspring to make the team.
​
If your athlete cannot safely execute the requirements listed above, they will not be allowed to tryout.
