Elite Development Pathway (EDP)
Developing Athletes. Inspiring Excellence.
Our Elite Development Pathway (EDP) has been created for athletes who are committed to taking their cheerleading or dance journey to the next level.
Designed to complement regular team training, the EDP provides structured, progressive development opportunities that help athletes build the technical skills, physical ability and performance mindset required to succeed at higher levels of competition.
What's Included
Our pathway offers dedicated development sessions in both Cheer and Dance, focusing on the key areas required for long-term athlete success, including:
-
Technical skill progression
-
Strength, flexibility and conditioning
-
Performance quality and execution
-
Jumps, turns, tumbling and stunting development (where applicable)
-
Choreography, artistry and musicality
-
Mental resilience, confidence and goal setting
-
Competition preparation and athlete education
Individual Learning Plans
Every athlete joining the EDP receives an Individual Learning Plan (ILP), providing a clear roadmap for their development.
Each plan identifies current strengths, areas for improvement and personalised performance goals, allowing athletes, coaches and parents to monitor progress throughout the season.
Regular reviews ensure every athlete receives targeted coaching, constructive feedback and achievable milestones that support continual improvement.
A Structured Pathway to Success
Our pathway is built around long-term athlete development, ensuring progression is purposeful rather than rushed. Athletes are supported through each stage of their journey with age-appropriate coaching, structured development opportunities and regular performance reviews.
Whether the goal is to master new skills, earn a place on an elite team or work towards national and international competition, including ICU pathways and Worlds-level aspirations, the EDP provides the guidance, coaching and support to help athletes reach their full potential.
More Than Performance
While excellence is our ambition, personal growth is our priority.
Through the Elite Development Pathway, athletes develop confidence, resilience, leadership, teamwork and a strong work ethic, skills that extend far beyond the competition floor and benefit them throughout life.
