First Time... World Record Attempt (Cheerleading)

On Sunday September 6 at 11am we'll be meeting in the vicinity of Fed Square to mingle, meet + group together before walking up to Fed Square for an 11.30am sign up for a world record attempt.

This is a free event that is open to everyone with all ages and abilities welcome. The record is for the largest cheerleading dance. There's a video tutorial if you want to practice ahead of time but we will run through the dance on the day.

To participate in the world record, you MUST also sign up via https://fedsquare.typeform.com/to/tZMFCTlm?typeform-source=fedsquare.com. This is so you can be counted as part of the world record. We need over 1,371 to beat the last record.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS:

• The event itself is to kick off NFL game week in Melbourne

• We will learn a cheer routine from the San Francisco 49ers Gold Rush Cheerleaders and hopefully (if enough come) help make history for the largest cheerleading dance.

• The Gold Rush Cheerleaders will teach participants their moves before everyone performs together for the record attempt.

It'll be a morning of dancing, being wildly uncoordinated, having fun, meeting people + sidequesting so that when someone asks you to share 'one interesting thing about you' you can say you broke a world record.

FOOTAGE CAPTURE / IMAGE USE:
