The most successful competition the Tom Cats have ever competed in!
At the end of a very long day, a coach of very happy Tom Cats went home with three trophies and big smiles. We had a fantastic day and really enjoyed ourselves. Our members were a credit to themselves and we couldn't be prouder of them for all their hard work and lovely wonderfulness. Special mention to the London City Stars, Reading Bunnies and Leeds Celtics for their fantastic spirit, friendliness and achievements: the sense of community among the university squads is what makes the events so special. Bring on Telford...

Christmas Party
 
We had a nice little party at the Happy Man to celebrate the onset of the winter holidays. It was fun.

Vikings vs. Tsunami's
 
It was a nice day for cheering when the sun was out- and we now 90% know whats going on. We know when to cheer and everything. Our impromptu cheering skills are getting good too, and newbies have been tentatively making up cheers, which is always to be encouraged. Medicine provided enough food for everyone afterwards, which was good. The boys were a bit gutted to have lost but seemed to appreciate our routine at the end and even sang the song we were dancing to when the music broke. They really are nice lads.
 

Vikings match report
 
Tom Cats supported the Vikings in an away match against Surrey. A lot of brave souls came out, pom-pons in hand for the match, a really good showing for our squad!

We are starting to really understand the rules of the game.... we think..
Jess Rossi has helpfully provided a  rules summary.
The boys lost but were very gracious about it.

Tom Cats support The Vikings in their first ever match, 07/11/05

Old and new squad members performed on stage at the students' union on the annual sports themed night. In line with the highly successful sporting tradition at Royal Holloway as organised by the SU, this very popular "come in your kit" night is a highlight of the cheerleading calender as we put together the routine with new members in just 4 days, and showcase the routine the squad took to the BCA international cheerleading competition.

Tom Cats support Streetleague Football Charity!  8/10/05
 
Members of the Tom Cats cheerleading squad travelled to Catford in London  to sideline cheer a Streetleague football tournament. This highly successful day saw the attending squad members choreograph and rehearse a routine involving complicated stunting and cheering in just 30mins. We had an amazing crowd response and performed the routine again later by popular demand!
