Traveling to Out of Town Meets
IMPORTANT TRAVEL INFORMATION FOR COMPETITIVE MEETS:
When we are invited to a meet, if a student is prepared for the meet and is able to safely perform his/her skills with proficiency, as evaluated by me, they may be included in the roster for the meet. As soon as we know how many students are on the roster, I will calculate the costs--hotel, bus, gas, and entry fee. Most entry fees are $10 per student, except for the LHSAA State Meet which is $15. Checks should be made to CMHS, as we pay with one school check.
When you send your entry fee in indicating that your child may go, I will send a note detailing the cost for your child to your home. The student must pay his/her own food costs and any incidental things on the trip that should arise. Entry fees are non-refundable. This means that if you indicate that your child may go and for some reason later on they cannot attend, the money is still due. There are no exceptions to this rule because we will immediately make appropriate reservations based on the number of student entries.
OTHER INFORMATION:
There is no AC in the gym in Baton Rouge.
UNIFORM SPECIFICATIONS FOR COMPETITION:
Girls: While at a competition, students may wear their black shorts for warm-up, but may not wear them during competition. The girls should have black briefs under their leotards. If you did not order any, they may be purchased locally at Shreveport Gymnastics Academy or ordered online. There are rules about the leotards being matching, so be sure to purchase the competitive team leotard. Your hair must be up and out of your face, and no fingernail polish or jewelry is to be worn.
Boys: While at a competition, the boys' uniforms should be also matching and you must wear your long pants on pommel horse, rings, parallel bars and high bar. Black shorts may be worn on only vault and floor. Boys may not have their hair in their faces either--it is also a deduction. Additionally, you may not have tattoos exposed or wear any jewelry during competition.
