2009-2010 SPECIAL NEEDS TEAM 

SEPTEMBER 2009 - MARCH 2010  The 2009-2010 Cheer Season was Class Act's first year to offer a cheer team for individuals with special needs. The team was comprised of 8 area students ages 5 to 18 years of age. Our 20010-11 team will be very similiar! Our special needs cheer team performs at some of the competitions in which the other cheer teams compete, sharing with the community their special style of cheering!  It warmed our hearts this past season to watch our special needs team be succesful at performing at various competition events in which we attended, and the effort these athletes put into their performances and the excitement they exert when they perform is contagious.  We want to give that opportunity to other special needs students in OUR area!  Come and join us!

Our Special Needs team (s) are coached by many volunteers from Class Act's coaching staff, parents and elite cheerleaders.  These athletes will not only improve their skills physically, but socially and emotionally. Belonging to a team, having responsibility and enjoying friendships prove to be just as important to the athletes and their families as the cheering itself.  CHEER FOR A CURE 2010

*Does everyone “make” the team?

You bet! Everyone can succeed at cheer leading. We will have athletes with many different disabilities. All will be able to participate at their own level!

*What if my special needs athlete can’t tumble?

We will work with each athlete to develop their own level of cheer and tumbling skills. All we ask is a willingness to learn, follow directions, have a positive attitude, and maintain good attendance.

COST

*What kind of financial commitment is involved in joining the team?

Tuition was FREE the 1st season as an introductory offer!  And only a minimal monthly fee will be charged so we can pay our dedicated coaching staff!  In order to promote our special needs teams, and get kids involved, we had a completely volunteer staff coaching the teams last year!  The Stage Wright Performance Center has donated the practice space which will allow us to offer these special rates!! 

There will be no competition fees, as we will compete only at competitions that offer competing FREE for special needs teams.

There will be a small cost for uniforms and shoes.  More information will be available upon registration for the team.
