Tryouts for the 2009-10 season were held on the 12th July 09.
The standard and the enthusiasm from everyone was incredible.
"I am so excited about joining the F22 Raptors and I had a great
weekend at tryouts. The best thing about the weekend had to be the
atmosphere created by everyone there, it was so friendly and mutually
supportive. I thought this was especially apparent whilst we were
showing our running tumbling, everyone's tumble pass was applauded
and you could tell that it was genuinely meant.
I am so looking forward to the season ahead with Aviators, team-wise
I am hoping that we will achieve a tightly-bonded and supportive
team, a clean, tight and impressive routine, and hopefully a bit
of silverware to show for our efforts! On a personal level, I am
looking to improve my tumbling, as well as my basing/partner stunt
skills and I'm looking forward to throwing some awesome level 6
baskets!"

"After already being an F22 Raptor for the first season, tryouts
were definitely an enjoyable experience. Nerves were replaced with
excitement and enthusiasm and as always people worked together and
were supported throughout the whole experience. Personally I would
like to focus on my flying skills especially baskets and the cool
pyramids AV is famous for. This year I know the team will go from
strength to strength, pushing our skills and each other whilst still
having fun and enjoying what we do best."
