While we are grateful and excited about all of the success our program and athletes have achieved above, what is most important to us is our mission of building self-confidence, self-discipline, teambuilding, and everlasting friendship through cheerleading. We pride ourselves on setting high standards for our coaches, athletes, and parents. We are dedicated and committed to training our athletes to achieve their goals and to believe in themselves on and off the cheerleading mat. Another amazing thing you will find about FAME All Stars is our World Class Staff. We have the most loyal, talented, credentialed, and experienced coaches in Virginia who are dedicated to seeing our athletes through to reach their fullest potential. FAME Coaches are more than just cheerleading coaches. They are mentors and positive role models for our athletes, and take pride in watching our athletes grow each day in life and in cheerleading. Although FAME is one of the biggest programs in the country, we are a FAMILY. Above all else, we pride ourselves on having a wholesome, positive, and encouraging environment where the cheerleaders LOVE to be! We strongly value sportsmanship, dedication, integrity, caring, and FUN.

TRASH TALKING, BAD MOUTHING, OR DISRESPECTING TEAMMATES, COACHES, OTHER PROGRAMS OR FAME WILL NOT BE TOLERATED FAME ALL-STARS Page 3 ATTENDANCE, TARDINESS, AND ABSENCES Practices are Mandatory. Athletes are only excused for illness and family emergency. Being an athlete on a team at FAME is a commitment. Athletes are required to notify their team coach if they are missing for any reason and receive their approval to miss practice. Excessive tardiness and absences are both harmful and disruptive to the team and very discouraging for the coaches and the other athletes on the team. Every single person is vital to the success of the team. If a cheerleader is constantly late or is missing practice unexcused, proper actions will be taken with the best intentions of the team in mind. If an athlete misses practice the week of a competition, the athlete will be replaced by another athlete so that the team can move forward. If an athlete loses skills that were needed to make a certain team or a coach feels the athlete is not contributing to a team they may be moved to another team that we see fit. Summer Practices…. We realize that families take vacations during the summer. Please communicate these dates directly to your Coach. Summer practices are a great time to work on individual skills. Coaches are prepared to spend a lot of time tumbling and stunting during these practices** While every effort should be made to attend practices, all Practices become MANDATORY After Choreography. Inclement Weather Policy: Every reasonable attempt will be made to open our doors for business on regular scheduled practice days. However in the event of severe weather conditions, the gym will decide whether to open or not. Notification will be posted on the Fame Facebook page, twitter and on the website. PAYMENTS, FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS, POLICIES Auto Debit is the preferred method of payment and will save you up to 20% off a month.

This notice should be emailed to Andrea at [email protected] Please note your account will continue to be charged until written notice is received. No refunds will be given for competition fees, choreography, tuition, or clothing for any reason at any time. If you quit the team prior to a competition you will NOT be refunded any competition fees. It takes a lot of hard work on behalf of the coaches and the team members to get a routine ready for competition. We register for competitions beginning in the summer to receive the best rates. If your child decides to quit, we must find a replacement and train them to be ready to compete. Therefore, competition fees are not refundable even if your cheerleader leaves, prior to a competition. If you have to miss a competition for some reason and we have to find a replacement, you will not be refunded any fees either. FAB (Fame All Star Boosters) If you need help in these tough economical times to pay for your child’s tuition and fees than FAB might be the thing for you! We work places from local Tides and Admirals games, all the way to special events such as NASCAR and Indy Races at the Richmond International Raceway and many things in between. You will be required to work a specified amount of shifts per quarter to be eligible for payouts, but you will reap the rewards when you see just how much it can help. We do have one rule you should know; you will be required to have FUN! Space is limited and there is a membership fee and required uniform (T-Shirt and Hat/Visor) that you will purchase through FAB. If you have questions about becoming a member or visit us online at www.leaguelineup.com/FAB PRIVATE LESSONS AND ADDITIONAL ITEMS Privates are an excellent opportunity for FAME athletes to grow and excel their skills.
