Comp Day Reminders

Meet Time
Arriving on time is crucial to ensure everything runs smoothly. All athletes will need to collect their own wristband at the registration desk. Coaches will not be provided with wristbands for this competition. Once you get your wristband head to your coach, start with a short training session, and then head backstage for warm-up.

Meet Location
  • Where: Outside the Convention Centre, under the freeway overpass near the escalators leading up to the Convention Centre. Look for the grass area (see 2 on map below).
  • Collect Wristband: Please head directly to registration desk to collect your wristband BEFORE meet time. Every athlete must do this individually.
  • Meet Time: Be on time to drop off your athlete to their Meet Coach. Look for staff in ‘Staff’ merchandise. Drop off your athlete with their Meet Coach and you'll next see them perform on the floor!

Collecting Athletes - Youth & Junior Teams
After performing, teams will watch a replay, collect bags, and head to the Quay Centre’s main entrance. Parents must sign out their athlete with staff before leaving.

Spectator Reminders
  • Do not enter/exit seats during performances. Wait until the performance has finished before moving around
  • Sit together to cheer on our teams! Please do not save seats, as space is limited.
  • Take your rubbish with you.
  • Capture your child's special moments (no flash). Tag us @shireelitecheer on Instagram or Facebook, and we’ll share your posts!
  • Bring the Shire Elite spirit—cheer loudly! 🌟

Award Presentations
We strongly recommend staying for the Awards Presentation. It’s an exciting moment for the athletes to celebrate their team’s results and take part in the fun. Coaches will meet athletes in the Awards area. Athletes whose teams place will receive their medals on the day. Parents must collect athletes directly from awards.
