  • Practices are REQUIRED 2 weeks prior to ANY competitions.

  • If and when an athlete needs or wants to miss a practice a coach needs to be advised of any scheduled absences prior to the start of the season.

  • MCCA reserves the right to refuse registration from any participants and/or families that currently do not have an updated account status OR who have repeatedly violated ANY of the parent expectations outlined in the parental conduct guidelines.

  • MCCA is a proud member of the Illinois Cheerleading Association (ICA).

​

ATTENDANCE:

  • Attendance is absolutely important to maintain a STATE QUALIFYING TEAM! This includes understanding that extra practices maybe added to the schedule a couple of weeks prior to competition. It's expected that all athletes be in attendance at every competition. Please plan vacations accordingly.

  • Full details of the complete attendance policy will be provided in the By-Laws prior to the start of the season. The attendance expectation is very strict and includes, but is not limited to the following:

  • Missing more than 4 absences may result in sitting out a competition or leaving the squad.

  • Missing practice the week of a competition may result in the athlete sitting out.

  • Competitions ARE MANDATORY for everyone. Coaches and the Board will not approve vacations during competition time.  Failure to present conflicts prior to the start of the season, will result in removal from the program without refund.
