Level 1

Level one teams have certain requirements in tumbling and stunting. It is the lowest/beginning level in competition cheerleading.

Tumbling Requirements:

  • forwards and backwards rolls
  • cartwheels
  • round-offs
  • front and back walkovers

Specialty skills for this level include back walkover switch legs, tick-tocks, and front handsprings.

Cheer Geelong shows many level 1 tumbling skills that can be acquired.

Stunting Requirements:

  • Stunts are usually done at or below shoulder height (tossing is not allowed)
  • Example stunts included are a connected extension, tick-tock at belly level, and a cradle.
Lincoln Lutheran cheerleaders show a two leg prep stunt.

*All divisions are able to compete as level one teams (tiny, mini, youth, junior, senior).
