The following information pack is designed to give you all the necessary details that you (as a parent or an athlete) may need. Please read everything in this pack carefully and direct any questions you may have to the MCA office.
“What is cheerleading?”
Allstar Cheer is a fast paced, dynamic sport that encompasses dance, jumps, gymnastics tumbling and a range of acrobatic stunts...
...all in a two and a half minute routine.
Cheerleaders train year round and are taught how to increase their strength, flexibility and coordination whilst also learning confidence through performance. Our athletes find cheer a positive social outlet where they connect with people their own age with a similar interest. Oh plus we can’t forget the beautiful uniforms that the athletes wear to competitions!

We always get asked:
All-Star cheerleading has evolved into one of the most exciting, fast-paced and strenuous sports in the world. Training for competitve cheerleading is hard, but extremely rewarding as athletes get to experience the incredible feeling of performing in front of thousands of cheering spectators. Our sport is broken down into competitive levels by age and ability level. The Australian All Star Cheerleading Federation (AASCF) is the main event provider in our industry and MCA forms our teams based on their competition criteria.
Our All-Star squads usually train Febuary to December with regular breaks throughout the year. We require the commitment of the athlete and families for the full year in order to build the best teams possible. We look for athletes that are willing to work hard, improve their skills, train consistently and be loyal to their team.
Our program vision and goal is to build our athletes by starting with a strong foundation and progressing your child at his/her own ability level in a motivating, positive environment. We focus on character and core values, of which helps mold our athletes into solid competitive team players. Our teams are always highly competitive within their various divisions.

FINANCIAL TERMS & PAYMENT INFORMATIONATTENTION: JOINING AN ALLSTAR PROGRAM INCLUDES COMMITTING TO A FULL YEAR OF CLASSES & TUITION. FEES ARE NOT REFUNDABLE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS SO YOU CAN MAKE AN INFORMED DESICION.
Enrolment MUST be paid upon commencing classes and a tuition Debit form completed by all customers prior to the commencement of their first class (with the exception of a free trial class). A tuition debit form is required to be completed at enrolment covering all tuition costs for the year up to and including December, 2018. Athletes enrolling during the year will be required to pay fees from the month they join onwards with a reduction for their joining month (ie - enrolling 15th April will mean April’s payment will be 50% off the full monthly amount).
Payment plans require monthly payments for tuition. PLEASE NOTE: Class tuition is a contract formed upon submission of an debit form to the office. The contract start date is the date of signature by the customer on that form. The contract expires once the full amount owed is paid. As part of our class tuition contract we allow a 20 day cooling off period from the signing date for customers to choose to cancel their contract without repercussions. After 20 days, customers have a contractual obligation to fulfill their contract, all costs must be paid in full. Scheduled payments that fail to transact or bounce will result in a temporary loss of service to the athletes: they will be gently removed from classes until the payment is made. Failed payments will incur an automatic $12 Failed Payment fee. If outstanding payments continue to fail to the point that we are required to pass the debt onto a debt collector, all debt collectors fees will be added on top of the outstanding amount owed. In the event of serious injury or severe illness, debit payments may be suspended for athletes who are incapable of attending training for a duration of between 3 - 6 weeks. To suspend your payments, a suspension form will need to be filled in and submitted to the office to be approved along with a medical certificate outlining the terms of the reason for suspension including length of time. Suspension requests cannot be backdated and can only be approved at the discretion of the MCA Management team.
Payments can be made at reception via cash or EFTPOS. Tuition is required to be managed via scheduled debits using DebitSuccess with all tuition paid for by the end of November 2018. The only alternative to this is full payment upfront upon enrolment. We do not accept cheques. A 1.5% surcharge applies to any Credit Card transactions including Paypass.
Tuition, enrolment and competition bundle costs are non-refundable in the event of injury, sickness, dismissal, cancelled classes, non-attendance of classes or discontinuation of a squad. MCA is not responsible for reimbursing travel expenses, comp fees or term fees to an athlete who is injured, sick, moved or dismissed from a team.
INJURY MANAGEMENT / MEDICAL CONDITIONSUpon enrolment each athlete will be supplied with a pre-existing injuries/medical form. This form must be returned to the office outlining medical issues or past injuries that could affect training. If any medical information changes throughout the year a new form will need to be supplied. Injured athletes are required to supply their coach with a physiotherapy report or medical certificate outlining the extent of the injury, rehab plan and when they are allowed to restart training. Injured athletes without a report or certificate will not be allowed to train.
Every senior MCA coach holds a Working With Children check and Level 2 First Aid qualification. The first aid kit is available to any student through their coach. MCA is unable to provide athletes with Panadol or equivalent medication. The club reserves the right to call an ambulance for any athlete and will not bear responsibility for any costs this incurs. Parents will be notified immediately.
INSURANCE / AMBULANCE COVERAGEPersonal accident insurance is supplied for athletes upon enrolment, but we DO NOT supply ambulance cover. MCA reserves the right to call an ambulance on behalf of an athlete regardless of their coverage with Ambulance Victoria. Parents will be notified immediately.
COMPETITIONSIf you are on a competition team, you MUST ATTEND your scheduled compeitions. The detrimental effect on a team missing athletes for compeitions is huge and it makes our coaches jobs incredibly hard. It is imperative that all competitions are attended.
Performance schedules are usually released 2 weeks beforehand by the event providers so please keep the WHOLE WEEKEND free until you know your arrival, performance and awards time.
Missing training within 3 weeks of a competition is completely unacceptable for ANY reason and may result in your athlete being removed from the routine for that compeition.
IMPORTANT INFO ~ Please Read!
COMMUNICATIONAs our club community grows ever larger we are constantly striving to communicate better with our athletes and supporters. To this end, we have several communication methods that we use for varying information.
EMAILAll official communication from the club will be distributed via email to both parents and athletes including a monthly Newsletter. All billing information will be supplied to a single nominated customer email address. Please ensure that [email protected] is not marked onto your spam list. Scheduled athlete absences should be emailed to the office AS WELL as phoned in.
TEAM APPEach team has a Team App that we ask all parents, supporters & athletes to request access to. Within the Team App, information regarding your team including event updates, training reminders and other relevant information specific to you or your childs team will be sent out. This is not to notify the team/coaches of an absence.
To get Team App, visit https://www.teamapp.com on a computer or search “Team App” on your iPhone or Android Phone Apps Stores to find and download the app. Then, simply search for your team by their name with a prefix of MCA eg: “MCA Falcons” and request access. Please make sure you also manually turn notifications on.
PHONESNotifications may be sent in the form of text messages to parents and athletes mobile phone numbers but we try to avoid that when possible. Athletes running late need to notify the gym office via phone as well as send an email.
FACEBOOKFacebook may be used for reminders but athletes aren’t required to have Facebook - it isn’t used for official communication. Facebook is not an acceptable communication method regarding absence or lateness for athletes.
ATTENDANCEDue to the team based nature of the sport, MCA has a very strict policy on attendance for classes. An athlete missing training for whatever reason (good or bad) significantly affects training and is detrimental to the entire team as choreography, stunts and pyramid sections are all don’t work if a single athlete is not there. Due to this, if an athlete misses 2 trainings or more during a term, they will be removed from the routine until whenever the coach deems it an appropriate time to inject them back in (usually at least 5 weeks before the next competition).
Hospitalization or serious contagious illness are the only accepted reasons to miss training. If ill or injured, athletes are still expected to attend and watch training so as to not miss changes. School exams, homework load or tests the following day are also not considered acceptable reasons to miss training. We expect all of our athletes to prepare themselves for their schooling responsibilities so that they do not negatively impact their team. If you have an exam during training hours, please give 1 month notice to plan substitutes for your position in the routine. For more information, please read the MCA attendance policy which can be found at the office and on the website.
DRESS CODEWe ask that all athletes wear full training uniform (training top, black, green or MCA shorts and training bow) to training. Athletes not properly attired will not be permitted to train. All athletes must have long hair tied back off the face for all classes and must remove all jewellery (including earrings) prior to each training session. Fingernails must be kept short at all times. Runners AND cheer shoes are required at every training session. At competitions athletes are required to wear their club t-shirt, singlet or jacket to and from competitions. Athletes are required to wear at least one piece of MCA apparel at all times during competitions to promote club unity and presence.
SPORTSMANSHIP & BEHAVIOURMCA has a strict ‘No Bullying Policy’ that extends to verbal, physcial and cyber bullying. We do not tolerate bullying in any form including negative body remarks. If anyone is found to be bullying other athletes they will immediately be removed from the club without refund.
Athletes and parents are expected to always exhibit good sportsmanship and show respect for MCA staff, team mates, other athletes and parents within the gym. During competitions, athletes and parents will not approach competition officials for any reason. Athletes will be asked to read and sign an athlete contract upon their first weeks with their team that outlines correct behaviour. This contract covers a number of items including our anti-bullying policy. Copies of this contract are available on our website or at the office.
OTHER GYMS MCA does not allow training or competing with other All-Star Cheer clubs under any circumstances. This includes private classes, clinics and open gyms. Failing to adhere to these rules will result in immediate dismissal from MCA without refund. Note: Exceptions are often made for gymnastic clubs, dance & scholastic programs (High School/University) but do require notice and approval from the MCA Program Director.
