Cheerleader Belongings: 

After check in, your teams will be escorted to the Commons where they will be able to keep their belongings.   Your team will have an assigned area with their name on it. Please only use the areas assigned to you and please be mindful of any mess left in your areas. Please make sure your athletes clean up after themselves. We appreciate your consideration in advance.

Warmups: 

The warmup area is in the Cafeteria.  Look for two OP backdrops blocking the warm up area,  you can use these for a team picture before entering the warm up area. Each team will have eight minutes to stretch, eight minutes for stunt/tumble warmups on two panels, and then eight minutes on a seven-panel floor. There will be a Bluetooth speaker for you to play your music while at the warmup floor. 

Athletes will then be escorted by an OP Cheerleader to the gym where they will have an eight minute break before performing. Please bring water bottles as there will not be water provided. There are fill stations throughout the school.

We will have t-shirts located INSIDE the gymnasium by the far corner.  They will be making on the spot tees and sweatshirts!
