WHAT WE DO
Since the original Scarlettes was established in 2003 we have come a long way! We have taken national and regional titles at major competitions. We currently have a competitive cheerleading team, Level 1 and 2 competitive stunt teams, competitive pom dance team and a performance team that supports our sports teams. It's a wonderful experience to represent the Scarlettes on the nationals floor and around campus! This is what makes us proud to be Staffs. This year we are continuing to work on our talent and skills.
OUR ACHIEVEMENTS:
We have won many awards at national and regional competitions over the years and continue to thrive as a team. We have also been recognised by the univeristy for being a supportive team and have shown our commitment to sport over the years.
We also are very involved with charitable work, with charity fundraisers for Cancer Research, Operation Christmas Child, Movember and raising awareness each month.
