Our
commitment is to provide a competitive environment for members to develop and
showcase their cheerleading skills thru practice, performance and competition.
The club, AKA The Ohio State All-Girl Cheer Team, practices Sundays 5-8pm and
Mondays, Wednesdays from 6-9pm at Jesse
Owens North. Members work on various cheerleading skills with the main emphasis
on stunting and tumbling. The OSUAGCT is a student organization and does not cheer
for any of the athletic events at Ohio State. The team is a purely competitive
team and competes at various competitions including the NCA National College Cheer
and Dance Championships in Daytona Beach, Florida. Besides competing, the OSUAGCT
sponsors several fundraising events through the year. These events help to defray
the cost of travel and competition expenses. All remaining expenses are the responsibility
of the team members.
The OSUAGCT currently does not offer any scholarships.

Membership in the cheerleading club is by tryout selection. All Ohio State students and incoming freshmen or transfers are eligible to be members of the team. There is a $20 a month membership fee plus competition, uniform and travel expenses. Membership begins in April upon selection, and continues until the completion of the next April tryout. All members are required to maintain academic eligibility throughout the season (2.0 cummulative GPA) and be a registered student at The Ohio State University or one of its branch campuses.
TRYOUTS:
Tryouts
for the OSU AGCT are held twice a year. The main tryout is in April for the next
academic year. The fall tryout is the weekend of the first week of school. Our
tryout is a fair and equal process. There are no judges; the squad is picked by
the coaches. The tryout process is very relaxed and low key. The idea is to facilitate
the absolute best performance from each and every person attending.
We are
looking for cheerleaders who show mastery of basic cheer skill ( jumps, motions
and dance) and demonstrate ABILITY OR POTENTIAL to excell in stunting and tumbling.
