NEW MILFORD BULLS CHEER RULES 2015 The following rules apply to ALL teams: Teams Cheerleaders will be placed on a team by the cheer coordinators and in direct compliance with Pop Warner rules. Every cheerleader is expected to perform all aspects of cheer, to the best of their ability (including and not limited to basing, back-spotting, front-spotting, jumping, tumbling and flying). The Head Coach and the coordinator will determine what position a cheerleader will have on the team and everyone that signs up will cheer. If there are physical reasons your child cannot comply with this rule, it must be noted on their original Pop Warner 2015 physical form. Practice Practice begins Monday, August 3 @ 6 PM*, and will end promptly at 8:30 PM. All cheer squads practice 4 nights per week for the entire month of August: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Practice will be scheduled on Fridays to make up any cancelled practices due to unfavorable practice (weather/field) conditions. All required paperwork must be handed in by 8/3/15 (no exceptions will be made to this policy). All practices are mandatory. Attendance will be recorded at every practice/game. A Bulls Cheerleader is required to complete 36 hours of practice before he/she is eligible to participate at a game or competition. If a cheerleader fails to meet the required number of practice hours she/he will attend all events, in full uniform and sit with the coaches. Credit will be given for this time. Credit (hours) will be given for attending the NCTPW Cheer Clinic on 8/22. Practices/Games After Labor Day Indoor practices are extremely important and attendance is expected. Teams will practice 3 nights per week, 2 hours per night, times and locations (indoors) to be determined by availability. A responsible adult must walk-in with and return to the practice area to pick up their child. No water bottles are allowed in the gym floor (kept in hallway). Please note: up to 30 minutes may be added to the practice to allow for setting up and putting away of the mats. Parents: Mats are extremely bulky and heavy, please make every effort to help roll-up and return mats to their storage area. We will try our very best to budget for all of our outside practices but it could be necessary to collect from the parents. We will let you know in advance. No cheerleader will leave before all equipment is properly stored and area has been cleaned-up.
