What is the chance that my child will make a team at Rebels Elite?

Even though "tryouts" sounds intimidating... most athletes that join our program are new to competitive cheerleading and dance. The tryouts are mostly to ensure that your athlete is put onto a team that is at the right level (from novice to advanced.) As the biggest Cheer and Dance gym on the peninsula we are able to offer more ages and levels than any other gym. We offer teams for all skill level! 

WHAT SHOULD I DO UNTIL THE TRYOUT?

It is recommended that you enroll in a gymnastics tumbling class to start learning the basics or improve the tumbling that you have. We will offer optional cheer/ dance clinics before the tryout. Please attend if you have never done cheer/ dance and are unsure if you want to join the competitive teams. Call us today to get signed up in one of our tumbling sessions. 650-952-2780

What do I/(the athlete) need to bring?

 Your Registration Form & H20.

What should I wear?

 If you are a returning member please wear your practice clothes. If you are a new member to our program wear athletic shorts or pants and a t-shirt or tank top. You should wear socks and tennis shoes that are clean as you will be wearing them on our spring floor. Please come with your hair tied back. Boys will need the same athletic wear for tryouts.

What will I/my son or daughter be doing at the tryouts?

You will be learning our approach to jumps and a short dance. Then you will be split into groups where you will show your skills. You will be judged doing jumps, tumbling (standing and running), a short dance and we will be testing out your stunting abilities. If you are trying out for dance you will learn a short dance and be judged on your specialties/skills, hip hop style and dance technique. Not sure what all of these things are??? Don't be nervous, anything you don't know how to do you will learn at tryouts!

What does the tryout cost?

TRYOUTS ARE FREE!

How much does this program cost?

We offer teams from $55 a month and up. The monthly tuition to train at Rebels Elite is based upon how many days/ hours a week the team practices. We have a booster club that runs fundraisers all season long as well to help diffuse the costs of our competitive sport.

When will I know if I made a team and what team I am on?

It will be posted within a week after the tryout.

I can't make the tryout date options...what can I do?

The best thing to do if you simply can not make it to one our tryout dates is to call the gym at 650-952-2780 and we will set up a time you can be evaluated BEFORE the tryouts occur. You have a better chance of making the team you want to be on if you tryout at the tryouts or in advance because the teams will fill up and no one is guaranteed a spot on any team.

What if I have two kids that are different ages? Can I bring them in at the same time?

Please try to bring your athletes to the correct times as listed above. It will be much more difficult to place them on the correct team if they are out of place at the tryouts.

Do you really have teams for athletes up to 25 years old?

Yes, we offer the "Open" divisions here at Rebels Elite, so even if you are over 25 and feel that you are an awesome athlete please feel free to come and give it a try!

Can you try out for a dance and a cheer team?

Of course! We have many athletes that choose to do both. It is quite a commitment but if it is what you would like to do you should give it a try! We even offer discounts for people who are dedicated to more than one team.
