This email will include a link that must be sent to the Parent/Guardian or Participants over eighteen (18) years of age to complete the Agreement of Compliance Form process. In your Teams and Rosters section of your account you can track which participants have not yet completed this action. All Agreement of Compliance must be e-signed the week prior to the event you are attending. TEAM ROSTERS - ONE PER TEAM EACH SEASON (SEE REQUIREMENTS & EXCEPTIONS BELOW). ALL STAR: All Star teams competing at JAMZ Championship(s) are required to their official USASF Team Roster for EACH event. These rosters must match the rosters that have been completed in the Teams and Roster section of your online account.

If a youth team qualifies for JAMZ Nationals, only the team members listed on the youth team roster will be allowed to compete. Please do not overlook ANY team members (include those that are out of town, injured, etc.). Once this list is provided to JAMZ we will NOT allow any changes to the youth team roster once it has been received. SCHOOLS: The rosters created in the Teams and Roster section of your account will be tracked for each event you are attending. A physical copy if this roster is NOT required to be submitted to JAMZ. COACH TICKETS One complimentary (coach/advisor) ticket will be given for each Entry Form. If you have more than one team, submit an entry form for EACH team. Any additional coach/advisor tickets must be purchased as spectator tickets. Coach/advisor tickets and wristbands will be mailed prior to event. SPECTATOR TICKETS Spectator tickets will be available for $38.50. We recommend ten days advanced payment to allow time for ticket fulfillment. This will eliminate unnecessary delays on championship day. Use the Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Championship Spectator Pre-Order Form to purchase spectator tickets in advance. Ticket-only orders will be held to a 10-ticket minimum. JAMZ Spectator Tickets will also be available the day of the event. Look for ticket window specifying JAMZ Tickets. All tickets purchased through this offer will receive a wristband allowing championship access. Do you want a faster, easier and less stressful way to order spectator tickets? Tickets are now available for purchase online at www.sixflags.com/discoverykingdom. Enter the Promo Code JAMZ at the top right of the web page. No minimum on online ticket orders and you can print them right at home. Upon arrival to SFDK, you will receive your JAMZ Wristband to allow access to the stadium for the day.

All other children must purchase a spectator ticket for entry in to the park and the JAMZ Championship. SPECTATOR WRISTBANDS We strongly DISCOURAGE purchasing tickets from outside offers for this event. The only way to guarantee entry to the park and championship on time is to pre-purchase the JAMZ Spectator TIcket!! If your team performs before 12:00pm and you have not purchased a JAMZ ticket, you will be required to wait in the JAMZ ticket line at the front gate to purchase an upgrade at the rate of $15. This upgrade will include early entry to the park and a wristband for championship access. WRISTBAND NOTE All tickets for participants and spectators (purchased through JAMZ) will include a wristband, and will be mailed prior to the event. Lost or misplaced wristbands will NOT be replaced. Persons with lost wristbands will be required to purchase a replacement wristband for $10.00. JAMZ recommends placing two fingers between the arm and the wristband when adhering. This will ensure the wristband is not too tight. Wristbands may be purchased in advance, on the form at the end of the packet, or the day of the event.

REGISTRATION 411 WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO KNOW TO REGISTER? PERFORM IN A SECOND CATEGORY FOR FREE! DID WE MENTION IT S FREE? Yes, teams are allowed to compete in a second category for FREE. However, teams are NOT allowed to compete in the SAME CATEGORY twice (i.e. Division 11 Show Cheer Level 2 and Division 12 Show Cheer Level 3). The second category MUST contain at least 70% of the SAME participants as the first category (no adding participants). Please select your second category when submitting original registration. Unfortunately, second categories can t be added once the Draft Schedule is posted. IMPORTANT NOTE: JAMZ cannot guarantee more than 20 minutes between a competitor s 1st and 2nd performances. Warm-up and award ceremonies may overlap. JAMZ will not change times the day of the event to accommodate teams for this reason. ALL-STAR/STUDIO & SCHOOL CROSS COMPETITORS - WOW, WE THINK YOU RE AMAZING! JAMZ does allow cross-competitors (meaning participants who perform on multiple teams), but they must: Be included in all team s numerical counts and rosters Submit full payment for each team the participant competes with IMPORTANT NOTE: Unfortunately, JAMZ cannot guarantee more than 20 minutes between a team s 1st and 2nd performances.

Championships 411 GET THE LOWDOWN ON PERFORMANCE DAY. JAMZ MISSION STATEMENT... BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT EVERY EVENT IS SOMEONE S FIRST EVENT! JAMZ Cheer & Dance strives to provide a safe and positive environment for kids to enhance self-esteem, improve skill levels and educate teams. By hiring talented and knowledgeable staff and conducting all events with the highest level of integrity and professionalism, JAMZ will pursue quantitative growth without sacrificing the quality of the company s products or services. EVENT PERFORMANCE SCHEDULES... PLEASE SHARE THIS INFO WITH YOUR PARENTS. Performance schedules are determined by the number of registered teams. A preliminary line-up with overall event day time frames will be posted on the JAMZ website (www.jamz.com) and emailed to the registering coach up to two weeks prior to championships. Team performance schedules will be posted on the JAMZ website and emailed to the registering coach up to one week prior to championships (no later than 3 days prior). Coaches will also be given a copy of the performance schedule at the time of Coach Check-in. All times are subject to change. Prior to posting of the schedule, please do not call to check your individual team performance time, how many teams are in your division, etc. We appreciate your patience. Please share this information with your parents. PARK OPERATING HOURS Check http://www.sixflags.com/discoverykingdom up to one week prior to the event for the exact park operating hours during the day of the championship. Park hours for general public access are as follows: 12 NOON - 9:00 PM - open to the general public. COACH CHECK-IN... NEW THIS YEAR! JAMZ will be hosting a Coach/Team Check-in Station. This will be a different process from any non-six Flags JAMZ Competition. Your teams warm-up will be extended by 5-10 minutes. The first station of the warm-up process will be the Coach/Team Check-in. At this time, Youth and All Star teams will be asked for your Official Youth League Roster (youth teams) or your USASF Roster (All Star). If any of the missing items are not turned in at this time, your team will not be allowed to continue with the warm-up process. PERFORMANCE ORDER... FIRST TO REGISTER = LAST TO PERFORM The date full registration is received (including full payment) will determine the performance order for all championships. The first registration received will be placed last to perform in that category/division/level. The last registration received will be the first to perform. Adjustments may be necessary due to team or division conflicts. Teams that delay submitting required paperwork will change position in performance order based on the date the paperwork is completed. Teams that make any changes to their category, division or level after submitting registration will change position in the performance order based on the date the new changes were made. PARTICIPANT ELIGIBILITY... PROOF OF AGE IS REQUIRED. Coaches/coordinators must be able to prove the age of their participants on the day of the championship. Youth teams should bring your league books with this information. Youth N/A teams should bring birth certificates with this information. All-Star/Studio teams should bring birth certificates with this information. School teams must be able to prove the grade level of their participants on the day of the championship as well as student enrollment with the school. PERFORMANCE AREA Chabot Stadium - All cheer and dance teams will perform on a 42 deep x 54 wide carpeted foam cheer mat. Spotters will be provided. Warm-up areas are provided in the stadium area. For the safety of your team and other guests, stunt practice is not permitted in the park. Due to popularity of these events, seating space may be limited. If Chabot Stadium reaches seating capacity, it may temporarily close until seats become available. JAMZ and Six Flags Discovery Kingdom recommend arriving to the theaters prior to the scheduled performance time. WEATHER CONCERNS... TRUST US, WE WISH WE COULD PREDICT THE WEATHER! In all outdoor events, weather must be a consideration. Since it does occasionally rain this time of year, we must address this issue. Since safety is our primary concern, the championship will go on weather permitting. One week prior to the competition, if the forecast is predicting light rain, SFDK will have an awning covering the performance surface. If the forecast is predicting heavy rain, SFDK will make the decision to move the competition to an indoor venue at the fairgrounds directly across from the park. If rain causes the performance surface to become unsafe, portions or all of the championship may be postponed or cancelled. Since the park will remain open rain or shine, these tickets are non-refundable. FACILITY POLICY Six Flags Discovery Kingdom does not allow ice chests/coolers, glass containers, outside food, metallic utensils, aerosol cans (bring pump spray instead), or boom boxes (stereos) to be brought into the theme park. Exceptions to this policy are for special medical situations or infants.

Championships 411 THE LOWDOWN ON PERFORMANCE DAY. MUSIC... TAKE THE STRESSING OUT OF PRESSING PLAY AT THE SOUND BOOTH! TEAMS MUST MEET THE FOLLOWING MUSIC FORMAT REQUIREMENTS: Music may be on CD or ipod/mp3 (must have 1/8 jack - email cheer@jamz.com for specifics). Music should be recorded at medium volume. Music must be recorded at the beginning of the CD with no other music on the CD. Duplicate CD s must be available so that teams may have a copy while in warm-ups, in case of lost, broken CD s, etc. Please label CD s with your team name and cell phone number (including area code) in case of loss. A team representative must be at the sound booth prior to your team s performance time to press play and direct our sound tech. ADDITIONAL MUSIC TIPS: Make sure your CD is an Audio CD Format, not Data Format. Check it in a CD player to be certain it plays properly. Coaches/choreographers should create routines that finish at least a few seconds under the time limit to ensure team does not go over the maximum time allotted for the category. Penalty points will be deducted for exceeding the time limit for routines. Music selections must be edited and appropriate for a family environment. INTERRUPTION OF PERFORMANCE... CAUSE WE KNOW STUFF HAPPENS. 1) Unforeseen Circumstances. a. If, in the opinion of the competition officials, a team s routine is interrupted because of failure of the competition equipment, facility, or other factors attributable to the competition rather than the team, the team affected should STOP the routine. b. The team will perform the routine again in its entirety, but will be evaluated ONLY from the point where the interruption occurred. The degree and effect of the interruption will be determined by the competition officials. 2) Fault of Team. a. In the event a team s routine is interrupted because of failure of the team s own equipment, the team must either continue the routine or withdraw from the competition. b. The competition officials will determine if the team will be allowed to perform at a later time. If decided by officials, the team will perform the routine again in its entirety, but will be evaluated ONLY from the point where the interruption occurred. 3) Injury. a. In the event that an injury causes the team s routine to be interrupted, the participant can stop the routine and seek medical assistance. b. Competition officials reserve the right to stop the routine if an injury occurs. c. The competition officials will determine if the team will be allowed to perform at a later time. If decided by officials, the team will perform the routine again in its entirety, but will be evaluated ONLY from the point where the interruption occurred. HOW TO HANDLE PROCEDURAL QUESTIONS 1. RULES & PROCEDURES. Any questions concerning the rules or procedures of the competition will be handled exclusively by the advisor/coach of the team and will be directed to a Championship Event Director. Such questions should be made prior to the team s competition performance. 2. PERFORMANCE. Any questions concerning the team s performance should be made to the Championship Event Director immediately after the team s performance and/or following the outcome of the competition. INTERPRETATIONS AND / OR RULINGS Any interpretation of any aspect of these Rules and Regulations or any decision involving any other aspect of the competition will be rendered by the Head Rules Judge. The Head Rules Judge will render a judgment in an effort to ensure that the competition proceeds in a manner consistent with the general spirit and goals of the competition. SPORTSMANSHIP All participants agree to conduct themselves in a manner displaying good sportsmanship throughout the competition with positive presentation upon entry and exit from the performance area as well as throughout the routine. The advisor and coach of each team is responsible for seeing that team members, coaches, parents and other persons affiliated with the team conduct themselves accordingly. Severe cases of unsportsmanlike conduct are grounds for disqualification.

Championships 411 THE LOWDOWN ON PERFORMANCE DAY. DISQUALIFICATION Any team that does not adhere to the terms and procedures of these Rules and Regulations will be subject to disqualification from the competition, will automatically forfeit all right to any prizes or awards presented by the competition, and may also forfeit the opportunity to participate in a competition or the National Championship the following year. SCORING... OUR JUDGES USE A CUSTOM SCORING SYSTEM SO CHAMPIONSHIPS RUN ON TIME AND SCORES ARE ACCURATE. JAMZ has incorporated an electronic scoring system to increase efficiency and accuracy in the scoring process. This innovative scoring system was the first in the cheer and dance industry and nothing can top it! We re excited for our JAMZ Panel and Rules Judges to utilize this amazing technology! Judges will represent various parts of the industry so that style differences will be balanced in evaluating performances. Score sheets may not be available on the day of every championship. In this instance, score sheets will be emailed or mailed following the championship. See the Scoring section for more details on JAMZ scoring process. FINALITY OF DECISIONS By participating in this championship, each team agrees that the decisions by the judges will be final and results may ONLY be reviewed for clarification. Each team acknowledges the necessity for the judges to make prompt and fair decisions in this competition and each team therefore expressly waives any legal, equitable, administrative or procedural review of such decisions. RULES 411 HOW TO KEEP YOUR TEAMS SAFE AND HAPPY. ASK QUESTIONS... ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT PENALTIES, FORFEITURE OR DISQUALIFICATION.
