Join Us
Welcome to ICE Athletics!
If you are new to Allstar Cheerleading, then please read on to find out how you can be a part of our ICE family! If you are a returning member then welcome back, we cannot wait for another fun season with you!
We are a successful Cheerleading Club based in Kent with teams training in Gravesend & Tonbridge. Cheerleading is one of the fastest growing sports in the UK combining gymnastics, dance and acrobatic stunts.
ICE was founded in September 2013 and after six fantastic years as Intensity Cheer Extreme, we rebranded as ICE Athletics.
We are a big gym with a small gym attitude. We have been National Champions every year (except for Covid. 2020!) since 2014. However, for us, it is about more than winning trophies. Our mission is to promote physical fitness, confident athletes, teamwork & sportsmanship through the sport of Cheerleading. At ICE Athletics we believe that our athletes learn life lessons that take them much further than their cheerleading journey. Our athletes become great friends whilst learning new skills and important life lessons in a safe and fun environment.
We are proud to say that we were the first team from Kent to compete at the World Championships and the first team in Kent to qualify two teams! Our most recent international success:
Lady Ice - 4th in the World & 2nd place in the Nation's Cup!
Subzero - 6th in the World & 3rd place in the Nation's Cup!
Glacier Girls - Silver Medalists at the Allstar World Championships!
We are now accepting new members and we want YOU to join us! Read on for more information on how you can be a part of our ICE Family!
FAMILY
We are one big family!
All of our teams support each other, everyone is given the same opportunities to progress and learn!
LEVELS 1-6
Being a larger gym enables us to create more well leveled teams.
This is important so that athletes mix with their own age group at a level suitable to them!
POSITIVE COACHING
We believe in positive coaching and creating a fun atmosphere at training for our athletes to thrive. Memories to last forever are made at training and competitions!
