Perfect attendance at scheduled workouts and gym functions is essential to ensure consistent training. If thegymnast leaves early or cannot attend workout, they must notify the gym. If you know ahead of time of anecessary absence, the gymnast should let the coaches know that they will be absent and the reason for theabsence.

Injured gymnasts are expected to continue to practice for the entire workout schedule (stretching, condition-

ing, whatever is possible) while recovering. There are no scheduled make-ups for team gymnasts. Attendance on your scheduled workout days is mandatory. Attending a practice not during your scheduled workout is NOT allowed. The only exception to this rule is

religious education classes. Park Avenue Gymnastics will re-schedule this workout time. This workout mustbe of equal or lesser number of practice hours. If this occurs, it is on a permanentbasis. This is the ONLY exception to the attendance rule. Please do not ask for other exceptions.

Keep in mind that session tuition would be necessarily much higher if we had to take into account that someteam members would be prorating tuition for one reason or another. Just as rent or mortgage payments arestill due even when you are away from your home, so is team tuition even when the athlete is absent.

Injured athletes are expected to participate in practice and gym activities to the fullest extent possible. It isoften possible to work on flexibility, strength, specific events, or specific skills. There is no reduction intuition unless the injury takes you completely out of the gym for over one month, and then only if thegymnast cannot participate in workouts in any way. In that instance, tuition may be adjusted depending onthe circumstances.

Each year you can expect to have a number of practices canceled due to holidays, weather, meets, rest daysafter long meets, and coaches attendance of seminars and training. These workouts will not be re-scheduled.There is no tuition credit given for these canceled workouts. We plan for these types of cancellations and theyearly tuition is calculated, knowing that there will be several canceled practices throughout the year.

Team tuition is calculated on a yearly basis. For your convenience it is divided into smaller monthlypayments that will be charged to your credit card on file, the 5th of each session (VIA AUTOPAY) ,regardless of attendance. Team members do not move on and off the team based on illness, injury,vacations, camps, schedule conflicts, or the like: YOU ARE EITHER ON THE TEAM OR OFF THETEAM.


3/15

If the gymnast must be late, the gymnast should call before their scheduled workout time. If for some reason,(school dismissal time, activities, etc.) the gymnasts will be late every week on a certain day, please inform thecoaches in writing.

We emphasize that the gymnast, not the parent, is expected to take responsibility for reporting absences andtardies. If for some reason (car trouble, traffic problems) the gymnast is late and not able to call, a parent must

send a note in with the gymnast. The policy is set up to teach the gymnasts responsibility. Please make an effortto adhere to the policy.

Gymnasts must be on time for open stretch. It is recommended that you arrive at least 15 minutesbefore the open stretch begins.

Gymnasts are only permitted on the competitive floor during their competition session.

Parents are never permitted on the competitive floor. Gymnasts and parents are never permitted to approach a judge concerning any childs performance orscores. If you have any questions or concerns, please talk to the coach after the meet.

Do not distract your child during the warm-up or competition. Flash photography is not permitted during competitions for the safety of the gymnasts. Please feel free

to take flash photos during the awards ceremony, but not during the actual competition or warm-up. Park Avenue Gymnasts and Parents are expected to exhibit the highest degree of sportsmanship and

respect for the judges, coaches and athletes from other gyms. This of course should also apply for yourown Park Avenue Teammates and their parents.

Park Avenue Gymnasts are expected to stay for team awards that immediately follow their competition.If the awards are later in the day, or the next day, and you can come back, we always love to have our

Park Avenue Gymnasts accept the awards they work so hard for!

All Team Members are required to have a credit card on file. Cards will be run on the 5th of each month. If youhave a zero balance on your account then nothing will be charged. If you would like to pay in another way,please make a payment by the 4th of the month.

This will be strictly enforced this year!

MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!!Team Parents are invited in to watch

workout during the 4th week of each session .


4/15

Parents are not permitted to remain at the gym for extended periods of time. It is distracting for the athletes,as well as the coaches. Safety is of the utmost importance at Park Avenue Gymnastics; the less distractionsthe better.

Parents should be supportive of the athletes and not coach their gymnast please leave that up to thecoaches.

Parents are not permitted in the gym. If you have a problem or concern and need to speak to a coach -pleaseask for assistance from the front office.

Please have your child at the gym on time and for the entire workout. It is essential that they do not misswarm-up and/or conditioning. It is very important for them to be there for the entire practice, in order toreceive the most consistent training.

Please make sure your child is properly dressed in a leotard, with their hair pulled out of their face, no make-up, and only post earrings.

Having your child be a part of a gymnastics team is a year round commitment. School always comes first, butif you want to be a successful gymnast, you must also make gymnastics a priority. Participation in othersports during your daughters or sons competitive season will interfere with your childs progress.

Please make sure that all coaches fees are paid when due. If fees are not paid, your child will not be able toparticipate. Coaching fees include session tuition, Coaches expenses for the travel fund and meet fees.

Be on time to all workouts. Do not go into the gym until it is time for workout. Do not leave workout early without telling a coach. If you are going to miss a workout, call the gym and leave a message for the team coaches. Cooper City:

(954) 434-0099 or Weston: (954)659-8717

Team girls should wear a proper leotardno skirts or unitards please! Team boys should wear eithershorts/pants and a t-shirt or jersey and shorts/pants. Make sure shirts are tucked in. Always wear your belt/waistband during workout. Your hair must be pulled back and if necessary fixed with clips to keep it out of your face. No dangling jewelry is permitted. (Post earrings only!) Shorts are allowed only during warm-up & conditioning. Bring your grip bag into the gym. It should contain a pair of grips & wristbands, a roll of tape, and your

floor music . (For optional gymnasts only! ) Gymnastics is an individual sport yet it takes place in a team atmosphere. It is required that all gymnasts

are respectful & polite to their coaches and teammates at all times. No cell phone use (including texting) is allowed during workout. If you need to make a phone call,

you must ask to use the office phone. Being a part of a gymnastics team is a year-round commitment. School always comes first, but if youwant to be a successful gymnast, you must also make gymnastics a priority. Participation in other sports duringyour competitive season will interfere with your progress.
