PRACTICE UPDATES

BILLING
Uniform billing will be processed on June 30th.
ATTENDANCE / MAKE UP POLICY
For gym team, we typically do not offer make-up practices, as each practice is designed specifically for the athletes in each level and the skills they are currently working on. Our tuition and fees are spread throughout the year, and we anticipate that families may miss a couple of weeks during the summer for vacations and other activities, so those absences are already factored into our billing structure.
Once Gold Star begins in August, we will offer limited make-up opportunities for missed Saturday practices due to other activities or trips, and we will do our best to work with families. More information about make-up options will be provided closer to August.
IN HOUSE CAMP INFO – GREEN & YELLOW GROUPS ONLY!
Dates: July 28-31, 2026 @ Excite!

OPEN GYM
The intention of these is to give athletes extra time in the gym and have them work on skills they already have. While coaches are present, this isn’t like a coach lead class or clinic. We want to encourage athletes to work on perfecting skills they already have or are comfortable throwing. This is not the time or place to try a new skill for the first time. We want to give opportunities but also want to ensure safety. We love seeing our athletes take advantage of this offer and we want to continue to see them coming into the gym!
CLINICS
Take a look at our summer offers and enroll now to get some extra time in on bars, beam, conditioning, flexibility, and much more!! Some clinics require coaches’ approval to enroll.
DRESS CODE
All athletes must wear a leotard to practice.
Bar shorts may be worn over their leotard, but baggy shorts and shirts are not permitted during practice.
Hair needs to be pulled back neatly and secured for the duration of practice. It does not need to be anything fancy, just secure enough to stay out of their face and allow them to participate safely throughout workout.
These standards must be met to earn a gold star. We have these standards in place to keep our athletes safe!
Please see the dress code section of the hotline for daily dress code colors.
