So how do you set up your own Street Cheer group?
You are here - Page 2

What's next?
Find a venue. Area, accessibility, and location are key aspects to consider. Also the venue should have a good safe working space for the number of participants and the location needs to be accessible to all.

Ensure you complete a risk assessment form for each facility. http://www.sportengland.org/cmk_temp8_risk_assessment_form for more help on risk assessments.

What about participants for the Club?
Without participants, you will not have a Club.
Schools are an excellent point of contact for participants. Speak to local schools and your StreetGames network and possibly arrange taster sessions (see section below) within school P.E. time or, as part of after school activities. This should produce an interest and buzz about your Street Cheer Club, and reinforced by information leaflets you provide (see section below), attendance should be high.
 
What is a taster session and what should it include?
A taster session is basically an example of a Street Cheer class.
It gives the students a 'taste' of what they should expect if they attend your classes. The content is very important. You should always make your taster sessions enjoyable. Participants should not be bombarded with too much information, just provide them with enough to get their interest. They will then be eager to learn more. (Refer to your lesson plans for more information)
