Description
The Winchester Spirits are the University of Winchester’s Competitive Cheerleading team.
Cheerleading involves stunts, tumbles, jumps and dance and we compete routines at various competitions. This includes regional and national events as well as varsity.
Last year we had a large Level 1 co-ed team, and for the 2024-2025 season, we will be having a LEVEL ONE and a LEVEL TWO. As well as our brand-new development team that will cover a host of levels! This team is open to everyone, whether you haven't done cheer before or you're an expert!
Our 23/24 season results:
LEGACY JUST BELIEVE Regional Champions Level 1 Co-Ed First Place!
LEGACY ALPHA AND OMEGA: National Champions Level 1 Co-Ed First Place!
Alongside our competitions and training, we love to reward our athletes by holding weekly socials, these include BOP, sober socials and events off campus. In the past few years, a few of our favourite off-campus events were the Southampton Christmas market and ice skating trip!
We continue supporting our local charity, Naomi House & Jacksplace, while getting involved in other fund-raising opportunities such as breast cancer awareness month!

MEMBERSHIP T&Cs
Where an activity group (sports team/society/representational network) has a competitive element or other external factors that affect the number of participants, your membership may be subject to criteria other than joining the group via this website. If this results in your membership not being able to be accepted, you will be informed (with any relevant details) and your membership will be refunded.
Membership will not normally be refunded if you cease being a student, if you voluntarily end your membership, or if you are subject to disciplinary action that removes your membership status.
CODE OF CONDUCT
By joining this activity group you are confirming your compliance with Student Union policies and bye-laws, particularly as it pertains to conduct, personal safety and acceptable behaviour.
Initiations: At no point should you feel pressured to drink and get involved in what others are doing, for example to join in with drinking games or ‘challenges’, if you don’t want to. If you are part of an activity group it is completely your choice whether or not you attend a social event. Activity groups are prohibited from carrying out initiation ceremonies, or any initiation-type behaviour, either on or off campus. If you ever feel pressured to take part in social activities as part of an activity group, we would strongly encourage you to report it to us here: https://www.winchesterstudents.co.uk/report It is our upmost priority that you feel safe engaging in Union activity, and there is support available for you if you have experienced or witnessed anything that made you feel uncomfortable or concerned you.
