We know cheer can be overwhelming when you're new. We've made it easy.
Cheer can feel like a lot to take in at first. We've made it simple to find your footing.
All-star cheer has its own language. You don't need to know it all on day one, but here are the basics every new F3T family runs into first.
Running or standing skills performed across the floor, from rolls and cartwheels to walkovers and tucks.
A skill where one or more bases lift and support a flyer in the air.
The athlete who is lifted to the top of a stunt group.
The athlete(s) on the ground who lift and support the flyer.
The athlete positioned behind a stunt group to support and spot the flyer.
A stunt where bases toss a flyer into the air using interlocked arms, then catch her on the way down.
A formation where multiple stunt groups connect together to build one larger stunt.
A cartwheel-style tumbling skill that changes direction, often used to start a tumbling pass.
A backflip performed from a standstill with the knees tucked to the chest.
A tumbling or stunt skill that includes a full 360-degree twist.
An invitation earned at a competition to attend a higher-level event, such as The Summit or The Cheerleading Worlds.
A skill-based classification system (Level 1-6) that determines which skills a team may perform in competition.
Division categories that separate teams by skill level and competitive experience.
F3T's own team philosophy: One Team, One Family, One Goal.
Experienced cheer parents know this already, so we like to say it early: competition-ready means head to toe ready, before your athlete ever walks through the door. It's not about rushing anyone. It's about knowing what to plan for so competition morning feels easy instead of stressful.
By the time your athlete arrives at the venue, they should already be:
Cheer shoe covers are allowed over cheer shoes to help keep competition shoes clean before your athlete takes the floor.
When your athlete is in their competition uniform, they should already be in their required cheer shoes. To keep the whole team looking polished and ready:
Competition mornings can require an early start, depending on your athlete's assigned meet time. If your athlete has an early check-in or meet time, plan to wake up early enough to have them completely ready before you leave for the venue.
If your athlete has an early meet time, plan for an early morning.
We know competition mornings can be early, that's okay! F3T just asks that every athlete arrives prepared and ready for their team responsibilities, so plan ahead and get some extra rest the night before.
From the official F3T Gym Rules & Standard of Conduct.
Your athlete should arrive competition-ready, not halfway ready. Competition-ready means:
Cheer shoe covers may be worn over cheer shoes to help protect them before your athlete takes the floor. Crocs, slides, slippers, and other casual footwear should not be worn with the competition uniform. Athletes should arrive in their required cheer shoes.
A friendly reminder: competition mornings may start earlier than a normal practice day. Check your team's official competition information and plan enough time to get your athlete completely ready before leaving home.

No. F3T welcomes athletes of all skill levels. Team placement is based on age, ability, and skill level.
Full-Year Teams: Commit to a longer competitive season. More competitions and potential travel, a higher time and commitment level, designed for athletes seeking an elite, competitive experience.
Half-Year Teams: A shorter season commitment, fewer competitions, great for athletes who want competitive cheer with a more flexible schedule or are new to the sport.
Our staff can help families decide which option is the best fit.
Class availability resets every Monday and classes are chosen based on athlete demand and skill level needs. Openings are announced through Instagram, our website, and in-gym communication. Spots are limited and filled on a first-come basis.
A private is a one-on-one, personalized training session with a coach of your choice. Privates focus on individual goals and skill development, and are ideal for skill progression, confidence building, and extra repetition.
Yes. Practices are mandatory for all teams. Consistent attendance is critical to athlete safety, team progress, and routine success.
Excused absences (illness, emergencies, approved conflicts) must be communicated in advance. Unexcused absences will result in a strike being given to the athlete.
Multiple unexcused absences may affect athlete placement, stunting groups, and performance opportunities. Attendance expectations are in place to ensure fairness, accountability, and team success.
All-Star cheer is a competitive sport that requires dedication, teamwork, and commitment. F3T maintains high standards while fostering a supportive environment that helps athletes grow both on and off the mat.
The F3T Booster Program is a parent-supported program that helps provide additional resources and opportunities for F3T athletes and teams. Booster families may support the gym through fundraising, volunteering, event assistance, team activities, and other efforts that benefit the F3T community.
Participation in the Booster Program helps support team needs, special events, competitions, athlete experiences, and other approved F3T initiatives. It is also a great way for parents and guardians to connect with one another and become more involved in their athlete's experience.
Additional information about Booster Program participation, meetings, volunteer opportunities, fundraising, and expectations will be shared by F3T. If you have questions or would like to get involved, contact the F3T front office or Booster Program representatives.
