Each week you should receive a weekly email with updates and announcements. If you are receiving statements, then your weekly email is being sent to spam by filters.
WHAT TO WEAR: I, the payor, understands that athletes may wear a T-Shirts/Tank Top/Sport Top and shorts. I understand that
- there should be NO chewing gum
- No dangling jewelry.
- Hair should be pulled neatly and securely away from the face so that is stays up for the entire class/practice.

PICKUP: I, the payor understand that all athletes should be picked up on time. Our staff does their very best to end classes at the published time. Please inform us if you know you will be late picking up your athlete. For all Junior aged athletes and younger, we ask that I instruct my athlete to wait inside the building and that I should escort them from the building to your car. I understand that during peak times the parking lot is very busy. I WILL take into consideration that our athletes may include young children and I WILL drive slowly and carefully. I will not take a chance on your student running to and from your car.
COMPETITIVE PROGRAM MANDATORY ATTENDANCE: I, the payor, understand that All athletes are to attend their teams regularly scheduled practices. If an athlete is not feeling well, or injured, they are still expected to be at practice. If your child has a fever or is vomiting they should not attend. A parent must call the office or team coach PRIOR to practice for this to be excused. All school activities and pre-planned vacations should be submitted 14 days in advance online as explained in the packet. If your athlete reaches 10 missed practices, unexcused or excused, a meeting with the All-Star director will take place. At this time your child may be removed from the team at the discretion of the All-Star Director. Attendance is required for success.
INJURY OR ILLNESS: I, the payor understands that should my athlete miss practice due to illness or injury that a medical form stating they are cleared to return to full team duties must be signed by a licensed practitioner and presented to CSSNLs before my athlete is allowed to participate in practice and/or competitions. I understand that missing practice due to illness or injury may result in my athlete’s role in the routine being affected.
ATHLETE SAFETY: I, the payor understand that cheerleading is a dangerous sport, regardless of age, and I will keep the athletes’ safety as my top priority when allowed in the waiting area. I understand that calling out to athletes or distracting them in any way is not safe and I understand that should I, or any other person with me, be distracting and jeopardize the safety of the athletes on the floor, we will be asked to leave the gym during practice.
SKILLS RETENTION: I, the payor understand that competitive team athletes are expected to maintain, at the minimum, the skills they have demonstrated prior to the beginning of the season. I understand that should my athlete fail to maintain the skills they have previously shown, CSSNL reserves the right to alter their role on the team, including, but not limited to, placing them on a different team. I further understand that although CSSNL does its best to place athletes where staff believe is best suited for athlete potential, CSSNL reserves the right to place my athlete on a different team should staff determine that my athlete’s demonstrated skills are not in the best interest of the team or the athlete.
UNSPORTSMANLIKE BEHAVIOUR: I, the payor understand that unsportsmanlike behaviour is detrimental to the success of CSSNL and its athletes, and can affect the gym’s ability to attend competitions now and in the future.

I understand that should I choose to alter CSSNL gear in any way without permission, I will be subject to replacing said gear at my own expense. Furthermore, I understand that the use of CSSNL’s name, logo, or team names is prohibited without the express permission of CSSNL.
TRADEMARK AND LOGO: I, the payor, understand that as a CSSNL member I am NOT allowed to use ANY CSSNL Logo, Branding or any CSSNL imagery to make merchandise, social media accounts, or any other product. I cannot sell or create my own CSSNL Clothing or merchandise. I also understand I am not allowed to contact any vendors on behalf of CSSNL, doing so is grounds for dismissal from the program.
