About NTU Cheerleading
Trent Tigers is one of the largest clubs at NTU, accommodating just under 250 athletes. Each year we accept new members, whether you're a complete beginner looking to try a new sport or a competitive cheerleader.
Trent Tigers is made up of 10 teams. We have 7 competition teams and 3 varsity teams. Our varsity teams take part in the annual varsity series performing at many sporting events, as well as supporting charity and external events, such as the Oddballs Foundation. Our competition teams range from Level 1-3 and include non-tumble teams, mixed-gender teams, and dance teams. Over the past 20 years, the Tigers have been very successful and gained multiple trophies and titles.
Trent Tigers is more than a team … it’s a family. We train hard, laugh louder, and grow together. Join us to make memories, friendships, and be part of something special.

Each year we accept a number of athletes on scholarships across a range of sports. Each scholarship application is judged on a case-by-case basis, and we encourage athletes from all sports who are interested to take a look at the information on the Sport scholarships web page. If you have any questions, please email sportscholarships@ntu.ac.uk or call +44 (0)115 848 3219.
Our sessions are a mix of professional and student-led training, guided by experienced club members who are passionate about the sport and dedicated to supporting others’ development.
We’re currently reworking our coaching structure, so all updated coaching information for the 2025/26 season will be shared on our Instagram and included in the Welcome Pack.
