The Sunday final round cheer must contain a music - dance routine in addition to some cheering and a jump, mount, or stunt. Each scored cheer must contain at least one jump, mount, or gymnastic stunt. When the dance routine is used in the Sunday round, the cheer must still meet this requirement. It is recommended that cheer lengths be between one minute and 90 seconds long. The Sunday dance routine WILL be subject to a three minute time limit.
Most squads edit a tape with a medley of music for their final round performance.
Make a test tape and play it and a commercially recorded tape in the same machine. Your tape should have about the same volume as a commercially recorded tape without changing the volume control. You will be responsible for having someone from your squad hand the tape to the sound person with the right side up, and cue the operator when to start and stop your tape. All Cheerleaders and 2 to 3 coaches or advisors per squad will be admitted to the events at no charge. Although we plan to have a professional sound system and tape player for your use, it is the responsibility of each squad to provide and operate a tape player of their own as a backup.
