The 2023 season is here and we can't wait to meet all our new athletes and families, and to see our current athletes back in the gym training for an exciting season ahead!
It's our biggest year yet! Our Gym is home to so many athletes of all ages, levels, and abilities, and as we enter our 12th year of cheer and dance, we now have 30 teams and lots of recreational classes!
If this is your first year with Shire Elite we are so thrilled to be introducing you to our amazing sport and our incredible family - our Shamily (Shire Elite Family). Shortly, you will begin to see the amazing reality of our sport and how every athlete plays an integral role in their team. But most importantly, we look forward to watching you grow both as an athlete and as a person. We know you’ll just love being part of your new team and developing the great friendships that come along with it!
🌟 Get ready for the 2023 season!

Athlete Page 📒 - We have a dedicated page with EVERYTHING you need to know about being an athlete at Shire Elite. There are links to Athlete Packs, Key Dates, Fees breakdown, Chorey Weekend Timetables and more. Yes, there is A LOT of information in there. But we find this is the best way to ensure nothing unexpected is sprung on our families throughout the year.
We do our best to pre-plan and organise absolutely everything that you will need to know or prepare for the year ahead. Click here to head to our Athlete Page.
Training 🤸♂️- Training starts back from Monday 23 Jan for all athletes, with the exception of our Tiny Tumblers who start back Monday 30 Jan.
A reminder that the gym is closed for the Australia Day Public Holiday on Thursday 26 Jan, so no classes or private lessons will be held on this day. Refer to our Key Dates Calendar for a catch-up session in lieu of this closed day. Catch-up sessions: We will hold catch-up sessions for any classes missed due to the gym being closed. These are not compulsory and are for all athletes including private lessons. Only Elite athletes do not attend these sessions. Check our Key Dates for when these sessions are held.
Arriving to Training: It’s important to arrive a few minutes early to your class each week to allow time to place your water bottle and belongings in the bag room, say hi to your friends and be ready to start your class on time. If classes are running when you arrive, please sit and wait, no jumping on equipment or interrupting classes. Please arrive no more than 15min early.
Parents/Carers in the gym: Please remember we ask that parents DO NOT enter the gym floor for any reason. This is important for the safety of both parents and our athletes to avoid injury, disruption of athletes and so that classes have the full dedicated floor space & equipment for their training session. You are welcome to wait and watch outside the gate.
