All appintments shuld be scheduled arund cheer events All members f the CCHS cheerleading squad must purchase a set f ankle weights that will stay in the cheer clset all year. These will be used fr jump and flexibility training. Cheerleaders shuld arrive at their first practice with these items. Like ther sprts, cheerleading is a large time cmmitment and families must be ready t make that cmmitment alng with their cheerleaders. Being a cheerleader invlves mre than just making the team and cheering at games. Cheerleaders are expected t be at all required practices, fundraising events, sign-making and ther schl activities, and all games and cmpetitins. This smetimes invlves giving up ther pprtunities.

Failure f 3 cnsecutive skill checks will result in a mre permanent and lng term prbatin until required skills can be met. The duratin f this prbatin will be at the caches discretin. Skill checks will include splits and standing and running tumbling (whatever tumbling yu thrw at tryuts will be yur individual skill check requirement). Fitness checks include timed running and push ups. Cheerleaders will have 3 attempts at each skill check t pass ff each skill.

Any excused absence frm a dress rehearsal r mandatry practice will result in sitting ut at the upcming cheer event. Be n time. If a cheerleader is tardy it will result in five pints ff her grade and cnditining. Practices may be added r cancelled at the caches discretin.

Girls wh are being distracting while sitting ut will lse mre pints n their cheer grade fr their inapprpriate behavir. Cheerleaders wh d nt dress crrectly (that means everything assigned fr yu t wear that day) fr schl n game days will sit ut fr that game and lse pints n their cheer grade. Cheerleaders will be required t jump, kick, stunt, and tumble at EVERY game. Sme injuries may require girls t sit ut rather than perfrm these skills. Cheerleaders wh chse nt t participate in these requirements will lse pints ff f their cheer grade. If yu can t stunt and tumble, YOU CAN T CHEER! Cheerleaders will be expected t thrw AT LEAST their team tumbling requirements at all games and in all halftimes. Cheerleaders wh cannt d these skills may be asked t sit ut f games r halftime perfrmances. Cheerleaders wh are ff task r nt behaving in blck will be asked t sit ut fr the remainder f the game and lse pints n their cheer grade. Cheerleaders will cnduct themselves in a plite and respectable manner at all games, as they are ambassadrs f Crner Canyn High Schl. This means n bing, bscene gestures, rude cmments, swearing, etc. 13. Cmpetitin Every cheerleader n the Crner Canyn Cheer squad will be part f a cmpetitin team as either a perfrmer r an alternate. There will be Silver and a Navy Cmpetitin team. The skills required t make bth cmpetitin teams are listed belw. Skills must be perfrmed nt nly at tryuts but als thrughut the entire cheer year. Failure t maintain skills can result in remval frm cmpetitins/perfrmances. Silver (Varsity): Tumbling: Standing tuck, standing handspring t tuck (r mre), rund-ff handspring layut, fulls preferred. Jumps: Duble jump t tuck
In additin t skills tryuts, there will als be sharpness, discipline, flexibility, and stunting tryuts. We will start assembling cmpetitin teams and stunt grups immediately after tryuts. Final decisins n cmpetitin teams will be made by the end f the summer practice seasn. Anyne wh is cut frm the Silver cmpetitin team at fall tryuts will either becme an alternate r mve t the Navy team at the caches discretin. All Silver cmpetitin team members will attend a separate cmpetitin camp called a chregraphy clean-up befre the cmpetitin seasn (We are estimating arund $100 per girl), and will have additinal cmpetitin and natinals/travel csts. The Silver team will travel t the Natinal High Schl Cheerleading Champinships in Orland, Flrida. All silver team members must sign a cntract that utlines the rules and regulatins f cmpeting n a high-level champinship team. Returning silver team members must have a better standing and running pass than the previus seasn. We need t see imprvement!! Because silver is such a big cmmitment and requires every single team member t make it wrk, missing silver practices and events will have heavier cnsequences than missing ther cheer activities. Navy (JV): Tumbling: Standing handspring (standing tucks preferred), rund ff tuck (handspring tuck by end f summer) Jumps: Duble te handspring (handspring tuck by end f summer) jumps t tucks preferred. In additin t skills tryuts, there will als be a sharpness, discipline, flexibility, & stunting tryut. We will start assembling cmpetitin teams and stunt grups immediately after tryuts. Final decisins n cmpetitin teams will be made by the end f the summer practice seasn. Cheerleaders wh d nt shw imprvement by fall tryuts will be placed n prbatin and may face dismissal frm the cheer squad. All Navy cmpetitin team members will attend a separate cmpetitin camp called a chregraphy clean-up befre the cmpetitin seasn (We are estimating arund $100 per girl), and will have additinal cmpetitin and natinals/travel csts. The Navy team MAY travel t the Natinal High Schl Cheerleading Champinships in Orland, Flrida depending n skill/ability level. Miscellaneus 2-4 Alternates will be selected fr bth the Silver & Navy cmpetitin teams. We believe that alternates are just as imprtant as any ther cmpetitin team member. Therefre, all alternates will be required t attend all practices & cmpetitins. Cmpetitin teams will have their wn additinal csts and time cmmitments. Changes can still be made after the end f summer t cmpetitin teams due t injuries r lack f skill perfrmance. Yu are NEVER guaranteed a specific spt n either team. Yu must earn it! While at all cmpetitins all cheerleaders are expected t remain in unifrm, keep their hair up and bws in, and keep their makeup n. Failure t d s will result in pints ff yur grade and pssible prbatin if it becmes a prblem. Cheerleaders will nt be allwed t have backpacks, cell phnes, blankets, r ther items with them during awards at cmpetitin. Failure t cmply with these rules will result in pints ff yur cheer grade and pssible prbatin fr repeated
ffenses. Cheerleaders shuld als remember that at all cmpetitins they are representatives f Crner Canyn High Schl and they need t behave apprpriately and represent the prgram in a psitive way.
