ALL TEAMS: COMPETITION SCHEDULE

Next week Thursday we will be releasing our competition schedule for this season!

Reminders:

-Block off the ENTIRE day for the dates listed. We will not know what time we perform until the week of the event.

-Travel Events: If your team is travelling for an event, please refer to the detailed schedule for when you need to plan arrival and departure. It is extremely important that you follow these!

-2 versions of the schedule will be released; one program schedule and one detailed schedule. The program one lists all the events for the entire program, while the detailed schedule will list more information, including venue locations and any special notes for that event.

-While rare, there are times when adjustments are made by either Excite or the event companies. If any changes are made, we will note that on the hotline. Continue to check and be sure you are up to date!

ALL TEAMS: CHECKPOINT #1 PERFORMANCES!

As mentioned in our handbook meetings and listed in our handbook, we will be doing checkpoint performances these next couple of months! This is a chance for the athletes to perform and for you guys to come in and see what they have been working so hard on.

Our first checkpoint will be August 4th-6th.

How it will work: Parents will line up down the cheer hallway (the one past the women’s restroom heading towards the cheer floor). Coaches will let parents in to come in to watch. We ask that you keep this to 2 guests per cheerleader as space is limited. Once performances are done, parents and athletes will be released down that same hall.

Times:

Tuesday 8.4- Mini Moanas 5pm

Wednesday 8.5- Tiny Tikis 5:00pm Diamond Divas 6:15pm/ Gossip and Lady Ex 8:15pm

Thursday 8.6- Wish 5:00pm/ Believe 6:00pm/Dazzle 7:00pm/ Crush 7:15pm/ Ambition 8:15pm/ Reckless 8:30pm

ALL TEAMS: ATHLETE/ PARENT CONFERENCES

August 10th-14th Coaches will be meeting with every athlete and parents to give quick updates on how your athlete is doing. Athletes and at least 1 parent/guardian need to be in attendance. This gives coaches a chance to put parents to athletes and get some face time while giving some feedback. In order to fit everyone in, meetings will be constricted to 15minutes each and we will not have practices that week. All times will be preassigned and will be released next week. Since these times are so fast and will be back to back, we ask that if you have any specific questions or want to have a longer conversation about anything, that you email into cheer@ for us to set a different time to discuss. In these meetings, coaches will go over observations from Summer practices, where they are excelling and areas to focus on. We are very excited to be able to do this and to get to touch base with everyone!

ALL TEAMS: POOL PARTIES

We have posted in bands requesting organization of pool parties for teams to be done in July. Be sure you are checking your band and working together to find a day and time that works best for the teams! Any parent is free to post or help organize!

PREMIER PREP: JULY MAKE UP TUMBLE CLASS

For the month of July, starting July 1st, we will allow you to do one make-up class (if regular class is missed) even though make up classes are typically not offered over summer. You can enroll in a make up class online and the front office will contact you if there are any problems with that class. *This is ONLY for July and we will not go back to do make-ups for any June absences.
