Attendance Policy
- Cheerleading is a team sport that requires consistent participation from every member. A cheerleader's absence from a practice or game negatively affects the team's ability to practice safely and inhibits the team from being able to perform their cheers, stunts, or routines in an optimal fashion.
- Excessive absences will place your child at a disadvantage in learning the routine, cheers or stunts and could limit of her involvement in the halftime routine.
Volunteer Opportunities
- Twin Boro Cheer has excellent volunteer opportunities for parents to get involved.
- Opportunities include Cheer Gear Sales and Sorting, Uniform Fitting and Returns, Camp Preparation, Fundraising, Coaching/Assistant Coaching, Treasurer, and Website Assistant.
