*We will begin working with our preliminary teams by

Wednesday, July 1. The selection of teams is a very tedious and often complicated process. Many key

individuals for each team.

Please expect possible change and movement throughout the summer months. As we get

to know the kids and see teams work together, we will make any changes necessary to

create strong, cohesive teams. Students should have competition ready skills before

moving to the next level. If students MASTER skills and improve during the preliminary

team placement period (well before team choreography), they may have the opportunity

to move to the next level.

To be competitive, our teams must have clean, well developed skills at each level.

Thank you in advance for supporting all of our teams. Team placement is not always

permanent. Coaches may make changes to team placement depending on the needs of the

team.

NOTIFICATION SYSTEM

We at Cheer Eclipse feel that communication between the staff, parents, and

athletes is very important in maintaining a great relationship. We will do our best

to keep you informed in a timely manner. Information that is important to your

athlete may be found at the lobby office counter, posted on our website at

www.cheereclipse.com in the Members Area and each Teams Band app. *Absence

Request Forms must be filled out and turned in to the office in advance for scheduled

absences. You will find the form on the CE website in the Members Area and at the

lobby office.

We want to hear from you. In order to maintain an open line of communication, an

excellent way to communicate with Sue Brummer, All Star Director is via email

[email protected] or please call the gym office at (316) 260-1666.

Please keep in mind, right before, during and after practice are not the times to

communicate. The gym gets very hectic in the evenings with classes and team practices.

Please, when at all possible; contact the office between office hours 3:30-5:00 p.m. or via

email, before normal classes/practices begin.

Loyalty to Cheer Eclipse is what will continue to make us great. Our staff is loyal both to

the athletes and to the cause. In return, we see a dedication from our parents also.

Our support in the past eighteen years has been phenomenal. It is evident in all that we

do. Loyalty is just one factor that helps us achieve our goals. If at any time you feel

that your loyalty to our company & program diminishes for any reason, please come to

Sue Brummer, before you go to other parents or those outside of Cheer Eclipse. This can

lead to false information being circulated and does not represent Cheer Eclipse in the

manner that we would like.

UNITED TOGETHER!

Cheer Eclipse Expectations

Any member may be reviewed for any infractions of these rules

1. Challenging the authority of the coach or person in charge, by student or

parent, may be automatic dismissal from the team.

2. Each member will follow all rules and guidelines given by the coach or

person in charge. Teammates are expected to treat one another with mutual

respect. We do not tolerate pettiness, gossiping or cliques; which attempt to

exclude or alienate certain members.

3. A member must at all time be a strong representative of Cheer Eclipse and a

positive reflection of his/her teammates. Abusive behavior, lying, and or any

other form of negative behavior are grounds for removal from this team. We will

not tolerate negative comments about other teams and their programs. Many of

you communicate with other cheerleaders at various organizations through social

media & texts. Please remember that anything you ever say is a direct reflection

on this organization. NOTE: If you are caught sending rude or inappropriate

messages you will be subject to immediate removal! In addition, you cannot use

the CHEER ECLIPSE name or any variation of our name in your E-mail address

or social media name/address.

4. All CELL PHONES should be turned OFF or the ringer placed on SILENT

during practice times. This includes parent cell phones. Athletes are not to check

or use their cell phones until after practice unless they have permission from a

coach.

5. There is to be NO videotaping of practices, classes, private training sessions or

open gyms.

6. Please do not bring your family PETS to practices at the gym! Service animals are

allowed.

must be worn as scheduled. Lost, misplaced or damaged clothing will be replaced

at your expense. Once again, our program is about building champions and

teaching responsibility to our athletes.

Page 9: Cheer Eclipse Mission Statement · a good understanding of grips for the above mentioned stunts and be capable of holding the stunts and dismounting. LEVEL 6 Standing two to full/double,

Leadership

1. Each member must be aware that no person has a right to be on a Cheer

Eclipse team. It is a privilege.

2. Each member and parent must be aware of the responsibilities required

and the commitment he or she is making to the team.

3. Each member must be willing to cooperate with and be helpful to the

coach or any person in charge.

4. Each member must realize the manner in which they conduct themselves

while representing Cheer Eclipse or not, directly reflects on the entire gym.

5. Each member will be willing to work hard, take directions and strive for

excellence.

Expectations 1. Members will set and maintain the highest examples of behavior.

2. Members will maintain the proper appearance with no extremes in

apparel, hair, make-up, piercing.

3. MEMBERS WILL BE ON TIME TO ALL ACTIVITIES.

4. Members will do everything in their power to achieve personal and squad

goals.

5. Each member is responsible for finding out any missed information.

Attitude 1. Always keep a positive attitude.

2. Being a member of a competitive all-star team is NOT about self

glorification and self promotion, but rather about being a TEAM player in

whatever capacity is asked of you by the coaching staff.

3. The athlete should always exhibit a positive attitude and a willingness to

participate respectfully

4. The attitude of the parent has a huge impact on the attitude and

performance of a child. We have watched cheerleaders shut down

because they have had too much parental pressure. Children listen to

what their parents are saying and it affects their behavior. If you act

disrespectfully toward a coach, cheerleader, or another parent your child

will mirror the behavior. We welcome constructive criticism and want to

address all of your concerns as a parent. However, we also believe that

"Attitudes are contagious". Negative parents will not be tolerated. We

would much rather surround ourselves and our athletes with positive

minded people.

5. Good sportsmanship, polite manners, and a kind disposition are

MANDATORY at all competitions. Cheer Eclipse prides itself on setting a

high standard of behavior. Please help us continue in the endeavor.

Page 10: Cheer Eclipse Mission Statement · a good understanding of grips for the above mentioned stunts and be capable of holding the stunts and dismounting. LEVEL 6 Standing two to full/double,

Parent Responsibilities

1. To make sure your son or daughter is on time and attends all practices/events.

2. Parents are to inform the office if the student is to be late or absent from

practice. Never send information through someone else.

3. Parents are to encourage and support your athlete to be the best he/she can be.

4. Parents are to fulfill any financial obligations on time.

5 No one is allowed in the practice area other than the cheerleaders and the Cheer

Eclipse staff.

6. During open practice times, you must stay in the parent

viewing area. No one is allowed to yell on to the floor or to speak to

any team member or coach while practice is in session. This is extremely

inappropriate & distracting to all involved.

7. NEVER speak negatively about anyone else's child. Any

negative behavior towards a Cheer Eclipse member, Cheer Eclipse

gym, Cheer Eclipse staff, via any medium will result in

dismissal from the team.

8. The coaches have the right to close practice at any time.

9. Please remember that the Cheer Eclipse name and logo are trademarks of Cheer

Eclipse. Sue must approve all designs bearing the Cheer Eclipse name and logo.

Anything created without her approval will not be acceptable and cannot be worn

or sold independently.

10. Parents are expected to support the coach's decisions, and encourage

their child to work hard and be supportive of their team.

Sick/Injury Policy/Crossovers

Beginning immediately we will follow guidelines set by the Center for Disease Control

regarding symptoms that could be related to Covid-19. This policy will continue to

update as the season progresses. Our guidelines in regard to Covid-19 are derived from

state mandates and the CDC. If an athlete is ill with any of the following they should

contact the gym front office and stay home.

According to the CDC people with the following symptoms or combinations of

symptoms may have COVID-19:

Cough and/or Shortness of breath/Difficulty breathing

Or at least two of these symptoms:

Fever

Chills

Repeated shaking with chills

Muscle pain

Headache

Sore throat

New loss of taste or smell

Page 11: Cheer Eclipse Mission Statement · a good understanding of grips for the above mentioned stunts and be capable of holding the stunts and dismounting. LEVEL 6 Standing two to full/double,

Covid-19 can also present with other uncommon symptoms such as wide-spread rash,

painful red lesions on fingers/toes and abdominal pain/diarrhea. If an athlete has these

symptoms contact the gym and stay home.

We will require that any athlete with a known positive contact with Covid-19 notify the

gym office and stay home/quarantine for 14 days. The athlete may return after 14 days if

they remain symptom free AND have a doctor’s note. A negative nasal/pharyngeal swab

will not take the place of a14 day quarantine after a known positive exposure.

We understand that our athletes will also have other illnesses and injuries that prevent

them from participating in practice. If an athlete is injured or sick with symptoms that a

physician diagnoses as NOT Covid-19 they will be expected at practice.

Nothing is more important than the health and safety of our athletes and staff. While we

all navigate the unknowns of Covid-19 if there is a question about an athlete’s health and

whether or not that athlete should come to practice please contact the gym office prior to

the athlete arriving at the gym. In the case of injury the athlete must provide a doctor’s

note with detailed information regarding the injury, treatment plan and length of

recovery. Extended injury may jeopardize an athlete’s position on his/her team. In the

event that a student is injured at home or during other extracurricular activities, we ask

that you please notify us as soon as possible. Please do not post on social media prior to

contacting our office.

Although we retain the full right to replace athletes that are ill/quarantined we do

understand that we are all facing tremendous uncertainty. Please know that we will do

our best to work with you and your athlete in the event that the athlete is quarantined or

sick.

We will make changes with choreography/routines based on the person’s injury and

length of recovery. Once the individual has fully recovered, he or she may or may NOT

be choreographed back into the routine. In the case of injured/quarantine/illness, etc.

extended absence from the gym may jeopardize the athlete’s position on his/her team. We

will make changes with choreography/routines based on each individual situation. The

coaches have complete discretion in replacing athletes for short term team needs or for

the remainder of the season. All injured/ill/quarantined athletes must continue to pay their

monthly tuition. Anyone selected as a crossover substituting for any athlete for any

reason will automatically receive the original athlete’s registration for competitions.

Page 12: Cheer Eclipse Mission Statement · a good understanding of grips for the above mentioned stunts and be capable of holding the stunts and dismounting. LEVEL 6 Standing two to full/double,

Summer Absence Policy

We use the summer to get ahead of our competition. Many students get stronger

and advance their skills during the summer months. Practices are mandatory,

BUT...of course we want each family to enjoy their vacation time. Please turn in an

Absence Request Form for vacation & camp dates at the front office as soon as you have

the information. Students are allowed up to 5 team practices for absences for family

vacations/camps June 8 – September 7, 2020. Please plan accordingly. Additional

absences will jeopardize an athlete’s placement on their respective teams.

Many other programs in our area allow students to miss practices without accountability

or regard for the ones that do show up. We are able to keep extra practices to a minimum

because our practices are productive.

ABSENCE POLICY

After September 7

th, the only excused absence during the school year is a school function

that results in a grade, illness, immediate family members wedding or funeral. All other

absences are unexcused. Part-time jobs, dances, concerts, banquets, long distance driving,

family reunions, recitals, school/church socials, and any other non related school

activities are unexcused. Absences are NOT allowed the weekend and week prior to a

National competition. An unexcused absence may result in the athlete being moved to an

alternate position or pulled from an upcoming performance at the discretion of the staff.

It is the responsibility of the athlete to learn any changes prior to practices. An Absence

Request Form must be submitted 2 weeks prior to the absence. Your school activities are

planned well in advance. Please submit your request in advance. DO NOT email or fax

absence request forms. A completed form does not automatically excuse the absence.

Absences must be approved. Please attach documentation from a teacher or instructor.

Competitions 1. Members are required to attend all competitions scheduled for their respective

team.

2. We will hold a travel meeting in August outlining our schedule for the season.

Safety 1. Jeopardizing the safety of oneself or any other member is grounds for disciplinary

action or dismissal.

2. There is absolutely no gum, candy, food or drinks allowed on the mats.

3. No jewelry is to be worn during practice. No exceptions.

4. No one besides coaches are allowed to spot tumbling for an athlete. It is

dangerous and could result in serious injury.

P.E.P.’s - Parent Booster Club - (Proud Eclipse Parents)

What is the Parent Booster Club?

Our Mission is to help provide fundraisers in an effort to offset the financial

responsibilities associated with competitive cheerleading.

Are there costs involved with joining the Booster Club?

There is an annual membership fee per each athlete. You will receive more info regarding

payment deadline at a later time. Usually it is due in the month of May.

What does this membership fee cover?

This membership fee covers expenses such as Fundraiser flyer photo copies, bottled

water on bus trips, sandwich box meal after ACA & NCA Nationals, etc….

Why fundraise?

Cheerleading expenses can be heavy during the first few months of the season. Generally

summer and early-fall fundraising proceeds are used toward uniforms and competition

fees. Fall, winter, and holiday fundraising proceeds are used toward registration fees,

transportation & hotel costs.

What does the Booster Club offer?

The Club will offer individual monthly fundraisers. A deadline and best estimate delivery

date will be posted for each fundraiser. Orders must be handed in to the fundraiser

chairperson on or before this date. No deadlines will be extended. The Booster Club will

also organize group fundraising that all proceeds earned will be divided among

only those that participate.

Where do the proceeds from fundraising go?

Monies earned by individual fundraising will be credited to an account set up in the

cheerleader's name. If a family has more than one cheerleader they will each have their

own account. This money may be applied towards uniforms, competition fees, hotel

rooms, or any expenses related to competition.

How do I access my funds when I need to use them?

A withdraw form will be available at the counter. You will need to have it filled out on

the respective payment due dates

Can fundraising monies be used to pay monthly tuition?

No, fundraising money may not be used to pay monthly tuition to Cheer Eclipse.

How can I find out how much I have earned?

A statement of account will be emailed out to athletes each month starting in the month

of August. It is also advised that you keep track of your individual fund

Stay informed.

Usually information about upcoming fundraisers and other important information will be

Cheer Eclipse AGREEMENT TO PARTICIPATE

Participation in all sports and physical activities involves certain inherent risks and

regardless of the care taken, it is impossible to ensure the safety of the participant. Cheerleading/gymnastics are activities that require considerable coordination, agility, and a high

level of cardiovascular and muscular fitness. It involves vigorous activity for as long as an hour

or more, many quick bursts of exertion, inversion and rotation of the body on the ground and in the air, and being alert to fast moving individuals in confined space. While it is a reasonably safe

sport as long as safety guidelines are followed, some elements of risks cannot be eliminated from the activity.

A variety of injuries may occur to a cheerleading/gymnastics participant. Some examples

of those injuries are: 1. Minor injuries such as scrapes, bruises, strains and sprains;

2. More serious injuries such as broken bones, cuts, concussions, and eye injuries (including loss of vision);

3. Catastrophic injuries such as heart attacks, paralysis, and death.

These, and other injuries, sometimes occur in cheerleading/gymnastics as a result of

hazards or accidents such as slips, being struck by another individual, colliding with another individual, colliding with the wall or another object, falling from a piece of equipment or from a

stunt, falling to the floor, or excessive stress placed on the cardiovascular system.

To help reduce the likelihood of injury to yourself or your son/daughter and to other

participants, all participants are expected to follow all rules and regulations pertaining to conduct, behavior, safety, and activities established by Cheer Eclipse.

I or my son/daughter agree to follow all established and posted safety rules and all rules

common to the sport of cheerleading/gymnastics. I or my son/daughter understand that I am responsible for his/her failure to abide by those rules and regulations. I or my son/daughter

agree to report any unsafe practices, conditions, or equipment to the management.

I have read the preceding information and it has been explained to me. I know,

understand, and appreciate the risks associated with participation in cheerleading/gymnastics and I am voluntarily participating in the activity. In doing so, I am assuming all of the inherent

risks and illnesses of the sport. I further understand that in the event of a medical emergency,

the acting coach or other supervising adult will call EMS to render assistance or obtain the needed medical treatment for myself or for my son/daughter for such injury or illness sustained

during the activity. I understand I will be financially responsible for any expenses involved.

________________________ _________ _________________________ ________ Parent or Guardian’s Signature Date Participant’s Signature Date

WAIVER OF LIABILITY: In consideration of being permitted to participate in cheerleading/gymnastics, on behalf of myself, my family, my heirs, and my assigns, I hereby

release Cheer Eclipse, its owners, coaches, directors, employee’s, sponsor’s, and volunteers, from liability for injury, loss, or, death to myself, while using the facility or in any way associated with

participating in the activity of cheerleading/gymnastics, including travel, or in the future, resulting

from the ordinary negligence of Cheer Eclipse, its agents, or employees.
