athlete information
Athletes and parents will be traveling on their own Friday and should arrive in time for the Friday evening practices at GWCC.
KC Cheer Coaches will plan to meet athletes outside of the practice room area at 7:00 on Friday night.
GWCC is very large so please be sure to familiarize yourself with the map provided in the parent band and information.
Athletes are responsible to get themselves to the convention center on time to meet their coach. The coaching staff will determine a meeting place for the weekend once we have familiarized ourselves with the venue. We will post any pertinent information in the team bands.
Athletes should bring everything they need with them for the day to the convention center. Be sure you have your own water bottle.

Rules & Requirements of Cheerleaders:
Hotel Curfew is 10:00 pm. Lights out in your room no later than 11:00, preferably 10:30. Parents please help us monitor the athletes so that they are prepared to compete both days. If cheerleaders do not adhere to this rule, their team will have consequences imposed upon them.
All Cheerleaders should make sure they have their phones with them as Team Parents will be sending a Band messages notifying every one of any last minute instructions (changes to practice times, etc.)
Please adhere to the schedule given to the cheerleaders. ALL team members are required to be at ALL KC Cheer performances!
NO swimming in the hotel pool for KC Cheer team members during the competition. You are free to swim on Sunday night after awards if you are staying.
Please do not allow your child to travel between the Hotel and Convention center alone.
It is a good idea to have a meeting place for your athlete should they get separated from you at the convention center. This is a very large venue.
gym spirit
We would like to have our Gym support all our teams! Please do not schedule any “outings” during the competition. Part of being a good team member is supporting all our KC Cheer teams! Bring your loud voices, noise makers and CHEER ON all our athletes!
SAY THE GYM CHEER-
“STRONG and PROUD
YES WE ARE.
KC CHEER THE BEST BY FAR”
Dress in your favorite KC Cheer Spirit wear and represent your gym proudly! Please be LOUD - Don't just stand and watch! At least CLAP the entire time! We only have 3 teams going to Cheersport so please be sure you are there to support all teams! THIS is our KC Cheer community and I promise your athlete cares more about your support than you know!
Athletes are required to watch and support all KC Cheer teams. Unless your team is meeting during another team performance you MUST be in the arena watching. Use your time wisely to get ready before or after other team performances.
