QMU SAPPHIRES Cheerleading

  

 

We are the QMU SAPPHIRES, Queen Margaret University’s official cheerleading team which has been around for 17 years, and during this time we have accomplished so much. Including our Level 1 team placing 2nd at the 2022 BCA Scottish Sensation competition, 2nd at our 2023 Showcase and 1st at the event in 2022. Our Level 1 coed team faced an intence competiton season this year but were able to walk away with our highest ever score, even if the placing didn't reflect this we are so proud of what they achived this seaosn. Also, our stunt teams have been divdion champions at Reign Supreme 2023 and our level 1 - Electric Blue are undefeated 2024 division champions taking 1st place at every competition in the 24' season!

We have a competition team who compete up and down the country, we also offer Level 1, 2 and 3 stunt teams who also compete. This year we will also be launching a POM Squad! (yes! after so many years of asking, its finally happening). Alongside this we also run a recreational practice on a Wednesday night, where you are welcome to come and develop skills while also experimenting with stunts, tumbles, pom and dance. We also create a varsity team who perform at events over the varsity week, there are no try outs for this team and its a fun event for anyone who want to join. 

Cheerleading is a upcoming sport and involves tumbles, stunting, jumping and dancing so it's fair to say you’re always on the move. QMU Sapphires are a friendly and supportive society and feel like a close family. Throughout the year we run various socials (alcoholic and non-alcoholic), and various fundraisers for everyone to get involved in!  You are bound to make friends for life with us, and don’t hesitate to contact any of the committee members/and or the social media pages with any questions!

We are open to any skill level you have and would love to have you join our fun and dynamic family.💙
