• Selecting and supporting representative national teams (Team England, Northern Ireland, Scotland or Wales) or clubs to represent the nation in particular disciplines where a representative team is not yet possible.
• Public representation, promotion and awareness of the cheerleading in the nation.Representation of cheerleading with national and local government (e.g. Scottish Parliament, Welsh or NI assembly).
• Representation of cheerleading with national sport authorities and national Commonwealth associations or councils.
• Monitoring and promotion of safety, including operation of safeguarding, injury prevention etc. within principles and priorities set by SportCheerGB.
