WHAT HAPPENS AFTER TEAMS ARE PLACED?
PRACTICE INFO Availability Mandatory. Attendance at all practices, games, competitions and school events that we are part of is mandatory. VERY BUSY SCHEDULE High School Cheerleading is your first sport. We also participate in community events, Scholarship Fundraiser, Fundraisers to help offset any extra costs. Time Management will be key to your success!
Cheerleaders must attend all practices and games mandated by the coaching staff. Only excuses are obvious – sickness, family emergency. In the event of a sickness or emergency, the student and parent should contact the coach to advise of the absences and reason. If we only hear from the student on an absence, we will confirm with parent. A bsences will be approved at the discretion of the Head Coach . Unexcused absences may result in loss of playing time, suspension, or dismissal from the team. To have a winning and successful team it takes players who are committed to being at practices and games. An absence is a missed opportunity for you to develop your skills as an individual and also contribute to the development of the team. Missing events can enable another player to step up in your absence and win your spot.
