Important Email Contacts Please read through this presentation thoroughly as it details many important aspects of our team program. If you are new to our team program, you may still have questions unanswered in this packet. Please know that each question is important to us, so do not be afraid to ask. Coaches are available to answer questions via email, or you can reach them by calling GU - around 3pm is the best time. Another good source of information are the parents of experienced gymnasts. The only requirement we ask is that you do not interrupt coaches when they are teaching. Also please refrain from contacting coaches on their personal phones. They keep a busy schedule and it is important that they have some uninterrupted free time away from the gym.
Team Agreement and Guidelines Team Gymnastics is a Year-Round Sport Because team gymnastics is a year-round sport, it is critical to success that team members are committed during both the school year and the summer. As the entire staff has made a professional agreement to the athletes, the athlete and her family also commit to the completion of the entire season through the term of: July 1, 2018-June 30, 2019 A Parent/Athlete Agreement must be signed, and should your child choose to stop mid-term, you will be financially responsible for the entire year. Missing Practice In order for coaches to do an effective job training team members for competition, it is critical every scheduled workout is attended, and that gymnasts arrive 5minutes before workout time. Illness is the only excused absences, and a call must be made to the front office. Please do not text the coaches. Dances, sleep-overs, after-school activities, birthday parties and other sports are not excused absences. If an injury occurs, we expect that your gymnast will be at practice for stretching and conditioning (at the coaches discretion). Tuition will be due during this time frame as it is a yearly tuition broken into monthly payments. There are no make-up practices for team. Practice is almost never changed, only weather related. Weather related cancelation will show up on the app and text to your phone.
Proper Dress. Team members should come to workouts in a leotard. Tight shorts may also be worn if approved by the coach. Our Pro-shop is stocked with both leotards and shorts. Loose fitting clothing should not be worn for safety reasons. Bare feet are appropriate. Hair should be pulled back. No jewelry, including ankle bracelets. You can use our restrooms to change, but allow enough time so that you are not late for your workout. Medical Conditions. Please notify the coach prior to practice should there be any new medical conditions that have not previously been noted at the time of registration.
Other Important Things to Know: Parents may wait in the lobby or leave the premises. For safety reasons, parents are not allowed to wait in the gym area Children must be picked up inside the gym. No child will be allowed in the parking lot without a parent or guardian. Also please be prompt for pickup and notify the gym if you are running late for any reason. No running, horseplay or gymnastics is permitted in the lobby area Chewing gum, glass containers, or food are not permitted in the gym area No pets and no smoking on gym property Gymnasts are not permitted to play on the equipment without permission or supervision of an instructor. Please read our safety posters and announcements posted regularly in the gym and on the TV in the lobby. There is a $50 late fee when your athlete is picked up more than 10 minutes late.
