Welcome to the Goldsmiths Lions Cheerleading Club!
Cheerleading is for you if you enjoy a challenge, have a background in gymnastics or dance, or simply want to try something new and make great friends. Cheer at Goldsmiths isn’t just a fun way to keep fit and learn new skills, it comes with a great social life - what we do isn’t just a bit of exercise it’s an all-round experience.
Anyone of any ability is welcome to join the team. As Legacy National Champions, Varsity 2023 and 2024 winners, competitive cheerleading with Goldsmiths Lions ditches the pom-poms and incorporates stunting, dancing and tumbling into a fast paced, high energy routine! We look forward to welcoming you to the team!
