LEVELSThere are 5 levels (for regular teams) this season. The “level” refers to the type of stunts, pyramids, and tumbling that a team can safely perform. They are numbered from 1 to 5, in increasing difficulty. The level is determined solely by the coaching staff.

PLACEMENTThere may be athletes on any given team that tumble at a different level than the rest of their teammates. We try to match up the athletes by level as best we can, but please remember that stunting, pyramids, jumps, dance, motions, and age are huge factors as well. Some will be stronger tumblers than others. Some will contribute more with stunts than others. We choose our team based on the positions that we need to fill for each team (Bases, flyers, tumblers, etc.) Every athlete is on the team for a reason — please trust the staff. Our teams have always done very well.

PROCESSThe try out process is very casual and fun! The athletes demonstrate Jumps, Tumbling Skills, and possible Stunting. They also meet the staff and new friendships are formed. We evaluate the athletes in groups and encourage each person to do their best!! Everyone is placed on a team no matter what! After tryouts, the staff will pick teams based on their discretion. Many key elements factor into the decision. Keep in mind ALL ICE® Teams are built to compete at a high level.

TESTIMONIALS“I would not be living my dream of cheering on the best college squad in the nation, if it was not for my All Star coach, Darlene Fanning. She not only taught cheerleading skills, but also important life lessons. At ICE®, I learned about hard work and dedication, made lifelong friendships, and learned to never, ever give up. Follow your dreams, ICE® is an amazing program that will help make them happen!!”

WHEN DO WE FIND OUT OUR PRACTICE

SCHEDULE AND WHAT TEAM WE MADE?Teams will be decided after the final try out date. Emails will be sent to all athletes with practice days/times as well as the team the athlete has made. You must create an account online prior to try outs. If you have not received an email within 24 hours of the announcement of teams, please call the front desk for assistance or email your location immediately.

WHAT IF I CAN’T MAKE TRY-OUTS ?A private tryout can be held. Email the address listed under your particular location to set up a day and time for a private try out.

WHAT IF I CAN’T TUMBLE OR HAVE NEVER CHEERED BEFORE? DOES THIS MEAN I AM NOT GOING TO MAKE A “GOOD ” TEAM?No. All of the teams at ICE® All Stars are “good” teams! Everyone has a place here. Tumbling and previous cheer experience are not requirements needed in order to try out. It is something you will learn with your staff.

WHAT IS A TEAM REP?A Team Rep is a parent who is the liaison between the coach and the parents. There is one rep per team. The rep is in charge of meeting the team at competitions, handing out wristbands, and assisting with team functions and communication. Team Reps are not involved in gym decisions, coaching or accounting issues. They are simply there to help organize and relay information.

ICECHEER.COM8

Do not make assumptions about anything. Always ask.

Attitude is everything. If an athlete has a foul attitude, we will place him / her to a non-competitive program, such as a class, until improvements are made. Until then, a replacement will be put in position.

Do not call or text the staff unless it is an emergency. The staff needs to have their personal time away from work. Thank you in advance for respecting this rule.

All cell phones and pagers must be turned off once practice starts.

All clothing and belongings must be stored in the cubbies, not thrown on the floor.

Do not bring items of value to the gym. (IPOD, Jewelry, IPHONES etc..) ICE® is not responsible for lost or stolen items.

The only people allowed in the gym are staff members and athletes that are on the Team Rosters. Parents, friends, relatives and siblings must remain in the viewing room. Siblings of athletes cannot come inside the gym and watch practice unattended. An adult in the viewing room must supervise them. We cannot baby-sit.

After your child is released from practice, they are no longer under the supervision of ICE®. Please be prompt when picking your children up from practice as we cannot have other practices being distracted by unattended children.

No one is allowed to yell onto the floor or make contact through the viewing room window.

You cannot create or sell your own ICE® clothing. Our name and LOGO are copyrighted. All ideas for apparel must be emailed and approved by Management.

Anyone threatening to quit will be asked to leave immediately. No refunds will be given.

Your opinion regarding practice and routine construction does not count. The staff makes all of the decisions.

Do not gossip about other teams, parents, other gyms or kids. Again, if you have any questions, ASK, rather than listen to non-sense or engage in irresponsible conduct.

It is the parent’s responsibility to stay informed. Check your email and website regularly. If you aren’t receiving emails, contact the Gym Director ASAP.

Absences must be cleared and approved by the Head Coach.

Coaches/Directors reserve the right to close practices at any time.

Withholding your child from practice cannot be used as a form of discipline. This is unfair to the rest of the team.

Do not post negative comments, routines or music on message boards, You Tube or any website.

Always be an example of good sportsmanship, positive conduct and professionalism at all competitions and practices. No profanity or rude language.

Punctuality is a MUST. Arrive 10 minutes early to all practices, competitions and functions. If you are late or dressed incorrectly, you will condition/jump after practice.

Practice schedules can change and any changes will be communicated to parents. We will add practices before a competition when needed.

No food or drinks other than bottled drinks are allowed in the gym.

Remove all piercings before practice. This is nonnegotiable as it is a safety issue!

Feel free to talk to your coach about anything. We want to make sure the line of communication is open. However, there is an appropriate time. Please contact the coach to make an appointment.

If you have questions, please use the following chain of command: Team Rep > Gym Director/Front Desk >Head Coach > Owner

Copyright Notice: You cannot sell or create your own ICE clothing. This includes team names and any other likeness to logo, affiliation and/or program.

ICE® ALL-STARS 2016- 2017PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT, RELEASE AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK

In consideration of the services of ICE®., its owners, agents, officers, employees, and all other persons or entities acting in any capacity on their behalf (hereinafter collectively referred to as “ICE®”), I hereby agree to release, discharge, and hold harmless, on behalf of myself, my children, my parents, my heirs, assigns, personal representative and estate as follows:

1. I understand and acknowledge that the activities that I or my child engage in while on the premises or under the auspices of ICE® pose known and unknown risks which could result in injury, paralysis, death, emotional distress, or damage to me, my child, to property, or to third parties. The following describes some, but not all, of those risks: Cheerleading and gymnastics, including performances of stunts and use of trampolines, entail certain risks that simply cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activity. Without a certain degree of risk, cheerleading students would not improve their skills and the enjoyment of the sport would be diminished. Cheerleading and gymnastics expose participants to the usual risk of cuts and bruises, and other more serious risks as well. Participants often fall, sprain or break wrists and ankles, and can suffer more serious injuries. Traveling to and from shows, meets and exhibitions, raises the possibilities of any manner of transportation accidents. In any event, if you or your child is injured, medical assistance may be required which you must pay for yourself.

2. I expressly agree and promise to accept and assume all of the risks, known and unknown, connected with ICE®-related activities, including but not limited to performance of stunts and use of trampolines. My participation and that of my child is purely voluntary. No one has forced or coerced me or my child to participate. I elect for myself and my children to participate in such activities in spite of the risks.

3. I hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and agree to hold harmless and indemnify ICE® from any and all liability, claims, demands, actions or rights of action, which are related to, arise out of, or are in any way connected with my child’s participation in ICE® -related activities.

4. Should ICE® be required to incur attorney’s fees and costs to enforce this agreement, I agree to indemnify and reimburse them for such fees and costs.

5. I certify that my child has health, accident and liability insurance to cover bodily injury or property damage that may be caused or suffered while participating in this event or activity, or else I agree to bear the costs of such injury or damage to my child. I further certify that I am willing to assume and bear the costs of all risks that may arise or be created, directly or indirectly, through or by any such condition.

6. In the event that I file lawsuit against ICE®, I agree to do so solely in the State of Indiana/Illinois and I further agree that the substantive and procedural laws in that state shall apply in any such action without regard to the conflict of laws rules thereof. I agree that if any portion of this agreement is found void or unenforceable, the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.

7. By signing this document, I acknowledge that if anyone is hurt or property is damaged during my participation or the participation of any of my children in this activity, I may be found by court of law to have waived my right to maintain a lawsuit against ICE® on the basis of any claim from which I have released ICE® by signing this Agreement.

I have had sufficient opportunity to read this entire document. I have read it and understand it. I agree to be bound by its terms.
