For any requests we will need you to:

- what city the role will take place.

Vetting is available to the whole cheer community, but is a free service for members, non-members will receive an invoice.
Vetting takes approximately 20 working days. The Vetting service updates their current processing time, so please check the website.
Results are a point in time vet and should not be relied upon for an unreasonable amount of time. Therefore NZCU recommend staff should be vet every 3 years.
