Brock University is implementing a new sports model for sports and clubs. Currently, Brock Cheer has access to Brock Sports medicine and Brock Sports Performance. That allows us to have a student-trainer at each practice to keep us healthy and a student-trainer to program workouts that we attend twice a week in the Brock Rowing Centre to build our strength. The new sports model is placing us in the "sport-club" tier, taking away our access to those resources and facilities. We strongly believe that we do not deserve to lose the resources we currently have and that Brock Cheer should be a VARSITY sport. From being actively involved in community events, to bringing home a gold medal in 2020 at the University Worlds, Brock Cheer is lacking the recognition we deserve. Not only is there a safety need for those resources, but they are also what makes us extremely successful. Please consider signing this petition to fight for Brock Cheer's Varsity recognition.
