Commitment, hard work and dedication will be required by you before you can wear the Orange and White.

Missing one practice during a one week period
Football: Limits the player’s participation time in that week’s game and he/she forfeit the minimum play requirements for his/her squad.
Cheer: Benches your player for one quarter of that week's game.
Missing two practices during a one week period
Football: Disqualifies your player from that week's game.
Cheer: Benches your player for two quarter’s and half time performances of that week's game.
Chronic absences
Football: Chronically being late or missing practices may result in termination from the squad.
Cheer: Because of the importance of stunting and teamwork, any absence can have a negative impact on the squad, particularly in the event of competitions. For this reason, excessive unexcused tardiness and/or early dismissals are not acceptable. Any cheerleader with excessive unexcused tardiness and/or early dismissal may be dropped from the squad.
