So
how do you set up your own Street
Cheer group?
|
|
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)
