fall season pending final grades. That athlete would not be able to
participate in any summer activities.

I M P O R TA N T N O T E S
• Having tumbling alone DOES NOT guarantee a
spot on a team, just as not having tumbling
does not mean you will not make a varsity
team.
• Previous cheer experience and Seniority DOES
NOT guarantee a spot on a team. Please bring
your best self each day at try-outs.
• Coaches are looking for skills along with
attitude, work ethic, “coachability”, and
drive. This is why we have the interview
portion.
