Dear Intensity Athletics Families,

Sincerely,

Intensity A letics Staff

Thank you so much for your interest in the Intensity Athletics Cheer program, home of our Nationally ranked Competitive Cheer teams! Competitive all-star cheer is a journey which shapes an athlete's character. Through teamwork, structure, and discipline, athletes develop the skills to conquer obstacles, be resilient in the face of adversity and build bonds that last a lifetime. This will be our fifth season as Intensity Athletics and our eleventh season with our competitive cheer program. We are anticipating an exciting and successful year.

By becoming a member of Intensity Athletics you are partnering in the journey to develop your child. Our goal is to not only share our passion for competitive all-star cheer, but to inspire athletes to be the best they can be both in and out of the gym which will in turn help them become positive members of society. Our owners and coaches are committed to providing a safe place where children develop both mentally and physically. We encourage our athletes to challenge themselves to reach new skills and goals with the help of our dedicated staff. We promote and teach sportsmanship, importance of scholastics, self-esteem, and self-worth to carry on years after your athlete graduates from our program.

We have prepared the information in this packet to help each family understand the commitment level expected from every athlete in the program. Please take the time to read through it very carefully. Intensity Athletics is a competitive, cutting edge program that demands the best effort from each one of its athletes. Our program requires no prior cheer experience. We ask that you carefully consider the financial and time commitment, and take the time to discussdiscuss the contents of this packet with your athlete before registering. Our mission at Intensity Athletics is to be a highly competitive force in the All-Star Cheer world. This achievement will require training and conditioning of our athletes in all areas judged, which include: stunting, tumbling, jumps, motions, dance, and innovative choreography. All this is accomplished while fostering very important qualities, such as integrity, loyalty, respect, hard work, dedication, commitment, and structure; to become world class competitors. Once again, thank you for your interest in Intensity Athletics. We hope you find this packet informative and that it answers any questions you may have about our program; however, if you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

EVERY ATHLETE MAKES A TEAM

To continue to build on the success for our fifth season as Intensity Athletics, we will not be having a traditional “try-out” for our All-Star teams for the 2019-2020 season. This year, our returning full season athletes will not be required to attend an evaluation. All returning athletes will be guaranteed a spot on the team at their current level that they competed at. If an athlete wishes to be evaluated for a different level team they willwill need to attend an evaluation. Athletes can attend any evaluation day listed on our website. The Evaluation results will assign an athlete to a level appropriate practice group until June 28th, 2019. During this period, all athletes are placed on a level playing field as they work with coaches who will constantly be evaluating their skill level and progression, but, most importantly, we will be observing their work ethic andand ability to take corrections. Athletes transferring from other programs are viewed equally as we are eager to welcome new families to our home, as well as continue to strengthen the bonds we have with our loyal families.

Our month long evaluation process will allow us to make decisions that are in the best interest of each athlete and each athlete’s team. It is our desire to see each child shine on every team. We take this very seriously and we will not place a child on a team where they cannot shine. This allows athletes to compete with skills they have mastered as they continue to build higher level skills without additional pressure. Athletes maymay be moved around during the next few months as coaches begin to refine teams. The goal is to assign the teams no later than the first scheduled vacation. Keep in mind your final team practice schedule may be different than the times you were practicing.

Cheer levels refers to the type of stunts, pyramids, and tumbling that a team can safely perform. They are numbered from 1 to 7 with the higher number being the highest difficulty. The level the athlete or team performs is at Intensity Athletics discretion, and no promises or guarantees are made as to which team your athlete will be on or remain on during the season. Age, experience, and ability are all factors that play intointo the decision. Please be advised that initial placement on a team may or may not be the team that you remain on. This is due to skill advancement or regression of an individual or a team. We will declare the final division and level of our teams in the fall before the start of competition season. Intensity Athletics reserves the right to move an athlete to a different team or change a team’s division or level at any time. Intensity AthleticsAthletics does not guarantee placements of any team member for any position in the routine or any team in particular.

*Intensity Athletics Reserves the right to place participants where they will be most successful both as an individual and as a teammate.
