11 months of instruction (May-March) and all items listed in the team assessments are included in the fees above. We take the total and
divide it over 12 months to give you a consistent and more affordable monthly payment. Practices end March 30th, 2015 (Unless a
competition ends up being at the beginning of April or a team is awarded a Summit/World’s bid). Payments do go through March 25th,
2015. Summit/World bid teams will have a modified schedule through April/May 2015.
Deposits: This is the initial fee due to register your child. For those that opt early bird registration you have the option to pay a minimum
of $100 of the deposit by February 28th, 2014 and the remaining balance is due by April 25th. Monthly rates will be for June 2014April 2015. All team members are required to have a credit card or debit card on file that will be used for monthly tuition. NO

New members can purchase a used uniform at a lower price. If you require, or desire, to purchase a new uniform FULL PAYMENT WILL
BE DUE AT TIME OF SIZING IN JULY.
Attendance: It is important to attend practice. Choreography is required. Level 5 teams will be held to higher attendance requirements
and are not permitted to participate on a high school cheer team - NO EXCEPTIONS. Over the summer if you are not away on vacation,
you should be at practice. There are no make ups or credits for missing a practice and/or tumbling class. Joining a team is a year long
commitment. Quitting the program after 90 days of enrolling on a team will result in an early withdrawal fee of $200. If you quit the
program after Dec 1st, there is a $300 early withdraw fee to cover the expenses the program has already paid out on your child’s behalf,
and for extra choreography practices to close your child out of the routine.
Crossovers: A “Crossover” athlete is one that participates on multiple teams. We WILL allow crossovers for the 2014-2015 season for
those who are interested. However, we will have final say if we allow an athlete to do so and which team they are allowed to crossover
to. Crossover fees are an additional $50/mo. which includes instructional and competition fees. PLEASE NOTE: If a team with crossovers
has the opportunity to fill to a maximum team limit, we will remove the latest crossover athlete added to the team (as well as the
crossover fee to your monthly statement).

Is Fundraising available?
NEW THIS SEASON we have established a non-profit corporation that is set up to solely assist our competitive team families. We will
offer 3-4 fundraisers a season and all funds raised will go towards specific teams and/or events to counter the costs associated with
all-star cheerleading. We welcome any and all donations throughout the year and it is a great tax write off if you, or someone you
know, are looking for one. All fundraising benefits each team or a specific travel event as a whole and not a specific individual. We will
have a athlete sponsorship program if you are looking to help out another family, your donation is completely tax deductible and will
help other team families in times of hardship if funds are available. All donations are made to JNS Sports, INC.
New This Season - UNLIMITED TUMBLING - What does this mean?
Due to the size of our program it is just not realistic to assign each team member to a small class that fits their tumbling level and
schedule. We will offer a variety of “TEAM TUMBLING TIMES” each week and each team member is welcome to attend those times.
We will have multiple coaches at each session and we will divide up the class after warm up by skill level. You can attend as few, or
as many classes as you wish! If you want an additional “small class”, you are welcome to add on a tumbling class from our rec
program at a discounted rate of $35 per month (normally $59) or sign up for private lessons at a rate of $30 per half hour.
Specialty Classes - What are they and are they required?
We will, once again, offer stunt specialty classes this season. ALL FLYERS ON A LEVEL 3 TEAM OR HIGHER ARE REQUIRED to
attend a minimum of 1 per week and will be charged an additional $15 per month to do so. There will be multiple 30 minute time
frames for flyers and this is crucial to the success of our stunts in the air. Other athletes are welcome and encouraged to attend as
well. If you are on a Level3 team or higher and do NOT attend this class, you will NOT fly on that team.
What are the discounts and savings?
