2011 – 2012 All Star Cheerleading
23052 Hwy 1088
Mandeville, LA 70448
Thank you for your interest in Mandeville Sports Club All Star Cheerleading.
Candidates will be evaluated on jumps, motions, running and standing tumbling. Athletes will first be placed according to tumbling abilities. Then knowing we must have the correct amount of flyers and bases on the team, we will evaluate each cheerleader to see where they will fit best on each team. Practice teams will be selected right away, but teams will not be finalized until August before routine choreography. From June to August, cheerleaders will be moved back and forth from teams as skills are gained and the needs of the teams become apparent.
· Team Placements will be posted on the Web site on or before Sunday, May 22, 2011. ( www.msccheer.com)
· There will be a MANDATORY parent & cheerleader meeting on Monday, May 23rd @ 6:30pm for new members and Tuesday, May 24th @ 7:00pm for returning members. Please be prepared to pay for your 1st month tuition($85.00), registration fee($50.00) and Program Fee($125.00). Practices will begin the week of June 6, 2011.
Competition Teams practice two days per week throughout the season. June and July practice attendance is required; however, we will approve a certain number of absence requests during those two months for summer vacations, etc. Beginning in August, all practices are mandatory and our normal attendance policy will again be in effect.
Exhibition Team will practice once a week throughout the season and will attend 2 competitions. Additional information about this team will be discussed upon request.
Our attendance policy is as follows: You are expected to attend all practices, exhibitions, and competitions as a team. Our routines are coordinated around every team member. Therefore, one member’s absence has a negative impact on all other team members. Be prepared to rearrange your schedule as needed; however, we will try to maintain a routine schedule in order for you to be able to make advance personal plans.
Although there are no excused absences for competitions without prior consent from MSC, excused absences for practices are as follows:
Death in family
School cheerleading
Pre-approved absence request forms
Sick with contagious illness
Examples of unexcused absences are as follows:
Sick but not contagious (can watch & not participate)
Optional activities
Birthday parties
Transportation issues
Homework or tests (please plan schedules efficiently)
Proper attire will be required at all practices, exhibitions, or competitions
Practice attire for each practice must be worn including shoes.
Hair must be out of face
No jewelry of any kind (including belly button rings)
Please understand that as competitions season approaches, coaches may call additional practices as required. Coaches may also cancel practices at their discretion.
MSC staff reserves the right to close practices to parental viewing at any time.
Practice clothes will be ordered in August, and will consist of one pair of shorts and one shirt. Practice clothes will be required to be worn every practice, and if you lose any part of your practice outfit you will need to purchase a replacement immediately.
