Parent/Athlete- Important Program Reminders
1. BE POSITIVE. Help your child learn to enjoy this sport and develop skills that he/she is capable of performing. Encourage and help your child so that he/she will have an opportunity for skill improvement through active participation. 2. Be realistic about the strengths and weaknesses of your child so that you may place him/her in situations where he/she has the maximum opportunity for success. 3. Treat other parents, coaches, teammates and staff with full respect. 4. Accept the decisions of the coach without showing inappropriate emotions or actions. 5. Remember SC teaches a strong TEAM philosophy: PROGRAM FIRST, TEAM SECOND, INDIVIDUAL THIRD! 6. Understand and respect the differences between parental roles and coaching roles. Uphold the authority of coaches and staff who are working with your child. Assist them when possible and use good judgment if you disagree with them. 7. STAY POSITIVE. Keep negative comments to yourself. Express concerns only to the coach, or front desk and in a straightforward, fair, and objective manner. Inform the coaches of issues and conflicts as soon as they arise. 8. Focus on performance factors, which can be controlled by the athlete, and not on winning or losing (an outcome which is frequently outside the athlete’s control). Positively reinforce improved skills. 9. Decrease the pressure to win; avoid making the outcome of the competition bigger than life. Make sure your children know that, win or lose, you will love them even if you are disappointed with their performance. 10. Help your child set realistic goals. Sport’s primary value is the opportunity for self-development. The probability of achieving lasting fame and glory is low; yet, their experiences allow them to develop life-long values and self-esteem. 11. If you need assistance or answers to anything, please contact us, do not go to another parent! 12. ASSUME GOOD INTENT! Do not make assumptions about anything. Always ask. 13. POSITIVE ATTITUDES WIN! 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. 14. Do not call or text the staff, outside of business hours, unless it is an emergency. The staff needs to have their personal time away from work. 15. Siblings of athletes cannot come into the gym to watch practice unattended. An adult must supervise them in the lobby. We are happy to have you entertain your toddlers in our awesome play room. See the front desk for more info. 16. No one is allowed to yell onto the floor or make contact with athletes/teams through the lobby door. 17. You cannot create or sell apparel representing Spirit Central or any of its affiliations. The Spirit Central Name, team names, SC, and SC LOGO are not allowed to be used on any apparel or merchandise for any reason. 18. 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 lobby. 19. Anyone threatening to quit will be asked to leave immediately. No refund will be given. 20. All decisions about practices & routines are decided on by gym owner and coaches. Parent opinions will not be discussed. The gym owner will offer seminars in the fall to educate parents on the all star season and the scoring system, as to better inform gym families about how and why we set up our routines a certain way. 21. STAY POSITIVE. Do not gossip about other teams, coaches, parents, other gyms or kids. Again, if you have questions. ASK, rather than listen to nonsense or engage in irresponsible conduct. 22. It is the parent’s responsibility to stay informed. Check your email, our FB Info Group and your team assigned app regularly. If you aren’t receiving emails please contact the office immediately (info@spiritcentralcheer.com). 23. Coaches/Directors reserve the right to close practice viewing at any time. Meaning, if you are scheduled for viewing and the coaches/gym owner feels as though it is necessary the TV’s will be turned off. We will make every effort to contact parents in advance if this is to happen. 24. Withholding your child from practice cannot be used as a form of discipline. This will result in an unexcused absence. 25. Stay positive on social media. Don’t post negative comments about the gym, athletes or coaches.. Posting full routines on social media is forbidden by Varsity. Posting routines in a private facebook group or team assigned app is ok. 26. Profanity and/or rude language will not be tolerated. 27. Practice schedules can change. We will ALWAYS add practices before a competition if needed. Please be flexible.*

6. Understand and respect the differences between parental roles and coaching roles. Uphold the authority of coaches and staff who are working with your child. Assist them when possible and use good judgment if you disagree with them.

7. STAY POSITIVE. Keep negative comments to yourself. Express concerns only to the coach, or front desk and in a straightforward, fair, and objective manner. Inform the coaches of issues and conflicts as soon as they arise.

8. Focus on performance factors, which can be controlled by the athlete, and not on winning or losing (an outcome which is frequently outside the athlete’s control). Positively reinforce improved skills.

9. Decrease the pressure to win; avoid making the outcome of the competition bigger than life. Make sure your children know that, win or lose, you will love them even if you are disappointed with their performance.

10. Help your child set realistic goals. Sport’s primary value is the opportunity for self-development. The probability of achieving lasting fame and glory is low; yet, their experiences allow them to develop life-long values and self-esteem.

11. If you need assistance or answers to anything, please contact us, do not go to another parent!

12. ASSUME GOOD INTENT! Do not make assumptions about anything. Always ask.

13. POSITIVE ATTITUDES WIN! 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.

14. Do not call or text the staff, outside of business hours, unless it is an emergency. The staff needs to have their personal time away from work.

15. Siblings of athletes cannot come into the gym to watch practice unattended. An adult must supervise them in the lobby. We are happy to have you entertain your toddlers in our awesome play room. See the front desk for more info.

16. No one is allowed to yell onto the floor or make contact with athletes/teams through the lobby door.

17. You cannot create or sell apparel representing Spirit Central or any of its affiliations. The Spirit Central Name, team names, SC, and SC LOGO are not allowed to be used on any apparel or merchandise for any reason.

18. 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 lobby.

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

20. All decisions about practices & routines are decided on by gym owner and coaches. Parent opinions will not be discussed. The gym owner will offer seminars in the fall to educate parents on the all star season and the scoring system, as to better inform gym families about how and why we set up our routines a certain way.

21. STAY POSITIVE. Do not gossip about other teams, coaches, parents, other gyms or kids. Again, if you have questions. ASK, rather than listen to nonsense or engage in irresponsible conduct.

22. It is the parent’s responsibility to stay informed. Check your email, our FB Info Group and your team assigned app regularly. If you aren’t receiving emails please contact the office immediately (info@spiritcentralcheer.com).

23. Coaches/Directors reserve the right to close practice viewing at any time. Meaning, if you are scheduled for viewing and the coaches/gym owner feels as though it is necessary the TV’s will be turned off. We will make every effort to contact parents in advance if this is to happen.

24. Withholding your child from practice cannot be used as a form of discipline. This will result in an unexcused absence.

25. Stay positive on social media. Don’t post negative comments about the gym, athletes or coaches.. Posting full routines on social media is forbidden by Varsity. Posting routines in a private facebook group or team assigned app is ok.

26. Profanity and/or rude language will not be tolerated.

27. Practice schedules can change. We will ALWAYS add practices before a competition if needed. Please be flexible.
