Our Show Program is the perfect way to introduce athletes ages 2–14 to the exciting world of cheer! Offered in three sessions each year, this 10–12 week program features one practice per week focused on cheerleading fundamentals, age-appropriate tumbling, jumps, and more—all in a fun and supportive environment. At the end of each session, teams showcase what they’ve learned in a special parent performance that’s sure to be a crowd favorite!

Our Novice Teams are perfect for athletes ages 3–14 who are ready to take the next step in their cheer journey with a fun and focused 9–12 month commitment. These teams practice just once a week and compete locally in the Pittsburgh area, making them a great option for families looking for a balanced schedule.
Competing at Level 1, Novice athletes receive rankings at each event, with the exciting goal of improving their performance and placement from one competition to the next. It’s all about progress, confidence, and having fun along the way!
Our Prep Teams are designed for athletes ages 5–14 who are ready for a bigger challenge and a 9–12 month commitment. These teams practice once per week and compete both locally and nationally, attending travel events with 1-day competition formats only—making it a great next step without the full elite commitment.
Prep teams follow a modified version of our Elite competition schedule, giving athletes the chance to experience the excitement of top-tier events while still enjoying a flexible and family-friendly season.
Our Elite Teams are for dedicated athletes ages 7 and up who are ready for a year-round commitment and the thrill of top-level competition. Practicing twice a week, these teams compete both locally and nationally at the highest level. With teams in Levels 1–5, Rain Athletics has achieved national success across every level, earning recognition and titles on some of the biggest stages in the sport.
Elite athletes should plan to finish their competitive season with an unforgettable post-season event (The Regional Summit for youth-aged teams, and The Summit for junior teams and up) —a true highlight of the year! Ready to be part of something extraordinary? This is your chance to shine.
Our prestigious Worlds program is built for elite athletes ages 13–18 who qualify to compete at Level 6, the highest level in All Star cheerleading. These athletes will attend all the same major competitions as our Elite teams, with the addition of a premier national event, showcasing their talent on the biggest stages in the sport.
Led by our world-renowned team Aqua—3-time reigning World Champions—this program represents the pinnacle of competitive cheer. Practices are held 2–3 times per week, with a focus on excellence, precision, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
