Athletes will be placed on teams with other athletes of similar skill sets. We offer small and large sized teams in levels 1-6. Athletes get stronger, advance their skills and begin choreography during the summer. Practices are important, but we do want families to enjoy their summer vacation time, camps, and other summer activities. Summer practices policy is; if you are in town, we need you at practice. We have created a very weekend friendly summer schedule so that families can still enjoy all weekends together. As of September 8th, practices become mandatory during our competitive season.

Tumbling Schedule Tumbling is an important part of competitive cheerleading. The term tumbling is used to describe gymnastic elements such as cartwheels and backhand springs. Our tumbling packages are designed for athletes who are serious about advancing in the sport. If your daughter loves tumbling and cheerleading- she should be training her skills with our coaches who know the sport of cheerleading inside and out. Local gymnastic clubs do not offer the same level of expertise in cheerleading specific tumbling. Athletes training with a tumbling package at the sea advance their skills much quicker. We offer the following types of lessons: Semi-Private: $30 +HST, 45-minute tumbling lesson. $32 +HST for a restricted coach. A restricted coach is able to spot level 5 tumbling. 2: 1 Athlete to instructor ratio. * A semi-private with 1 athlete registered becomes a 30 minute private lesson. US/Guest Instructors: Semi-private: $35-$40+HST, Group Class: $25+HST. We often have guest professionals visit the gym to offer their expertise. They bring a variety of strengths and are an asset to our athletes training. Open Tumbling: These times are included in your monthly tuition fees. 1 hour, drop-in as scheduled. One coach, similar to a lifeguard, supervises open tumbling. These times are designed for athletes to work tumbling skills they are able to do confidently on their own while having access to the gym and equipment. Open tumbling for all ages begins June 8th, 2015. All ages: Monday & Thursday 4:30-5:30pm / BEGINNING IN THE FALL: Tiny / Mini: Saturday 1:00-2:00pm How to sign-up for tumbling 1.

Attendance & Gym Closures Cheer Sport Sharks start our season off with a family friendly, weekend free schedule from June 8 September 8. During the competitive season (October-April) practice is essential to the success of the teams. The Sharks are successful because of the mandatory attendance policy. We expect that all efforts are made to attend team practices and that families take their commitment seriously. Cheer at the Sharks must be a priority for your family. If your athlete is absent from practice, it negatively impacts her team, and could effect her role in the routine. Competitions are also mandatory, athletes and their families are expected to make every effort to attend. Please look carefully at the competition schedule, and take into consideration the travel and fees associated with each team. Most of our teams will travel to the USA and need a passport. Mandatory parent meetings will occur during the first month of practices to meet the team and review the gym policy and important dates of the season. The attendance policy will be similar to the 2015-2016 season and will be available at registration. It will include a $50 deposit, which you will get back at the end of the season if your agreement is fulfilled. Champ Camps: These are 2-day level camps designed to standardize and advance stunts, techniques and skills within the team. This camp is included in your yearly investment and includes all Cheer Sport & guest instructors, and a camp tank top! All athletes are expected to attend. CHAMP CAMP DATES Level 1 August 25 & 26 Level 2 August 27 & 28 Level 3-5 July 20 & 21 Uniforms Included in your yearly investment is a practice uniform consisting of a program t-shirt and a custom team training set as well as a competition hair bow. This season all Ottawa Sharks will need to purchase a new uniform (tiny through open with exception of Finbacks). These uniforms will cost approximately $250- $300. Payment will be due on July 30, 2015. We will wear this uniform for three seasons. In future season we will hold Uniform Swap and Sell dates to avoid having to purchase a new uniform every year. All athletes will need to purchase the appropriate personal uniform items for their team. These items include but are not limited to cheer shoes, make-up, and travel wear. Teams traveling to the U.S. will need to purchase the mandatory warm-up suit ($125 for jacket and pants). These items are the property of the athlete, and can be worn and re-worn every year. The cost of these items is determined on a team-by-team basis, and ranges from $25-$200.
