Cheer

Expectations & Guidelines

You represent your school and community, act accordingly both at and away from school, in uniform and out.
Conduct yourselves respectively at games, your actions and words are a direct reflection on the team, your coach & Albemarle School.
Dress code for game day is the same as it is for other athletic teams. No jeans, sweatshirts, or short skirts.
No Missing Practices. You are one part of a whole and we need you to be here to be apart. (Doctor appointments are accepted, but the Coach will need to know 1 week prior)
Absolutely no missing practices the day before a game. This is when we plan stunts, and routines and floor line ups. If you miss the practice before a game, you will not cheer. (Exception if the coach knew about the doctor's appointment the week before)
No jewelry during practice or games this is a safety issue. You might not mean to cut someone's arm with your earring or ring or have your necklace broke so this rule must not be broken.
Pom Poms belong to the school and must be returned at the end of the season. (Please do not get them wet or scrunch)
No food or drink is allowed while cheering.
No Gum is ever allowed this includes during practice as well as during games
